4 alternative left wingers for Arsenal to consider in the summer transfer window

Does anyone know Mykhailo Mudryk's phone number?

However, a deal for either player could bring complications; Williams is said to demand £300-400k a week – figures that would make him our highest earner – while Rodrygo, though attainable, could still cost the Gunners anything up to £100m.

Their terms are not deal-breakers, but they may prove lavish enough to prompt a re-think (especially as the club has a lengthy shopping list) and there is a long list of targets that could also do a good job for more reasonable prices.     

So, from another Bundesliga hotshot to names familiar in the Premier League and beyond, here are four alternative left winger options for Arsenal to weigh up in 2025.

1. Antonio Nusa

Maybe just buy RB Leipzig instead?

Arsenal are already in talks with the club over Benjamin Sesko but, while there, it might be worth it to discuss a move for his teammates too, including left-wing star Antonio Nusa.

The 20-year-old enjoyed a strong, debut year in the Bundesliga and showed qualities that would get Gooners salivating if he joined. His two-footedness, pace and direct running style are a joy to behold and denote the sort of unpredictable, maverick-like energy that has been sorely lacking at Arsenal in recent times.

Nusa did not make it count on the stats sheet – in 2024/25, he notched five goals and eight assists in 40 matches across all competitions. However, the boss will no doubt consider his traits away from spread-sheets and could be tempted by this rough diamond.

One to keep an eye on.
