Arsenal need to seal Partey, Rabiot and Koulibaly transfers to start competing in Premier League again, says Campbell
Jul 14, 2020
FORMER Arsenal star Kevin Campbell wants to see "four or five" major signings to launch the club back up the Premier League.
As Mikel Arteta's side struggle to qualify for next season's Europa League, the 50-year-old believes Thomas Partey and Adrien Rabiot are required to fix the Gunners' midfield.
Defence is also an "Achilles heel" that must be tended to with Napoli star Kalidou Koulibaly another name Campbell wants to see his told team chase.
He wrote for GentingBet : "Arsenal need four or five players across the board.
"They need centre-halves, I can see them going for one or two players in that position.
"They also need central midfielders, and more energy across the midfield and either another striker or a wide player.
"I could see three players coming to Arsenal, dependent on recruitment and transfer budget – I’m not sure what’s going to happen and I’m not sure who Arteta is looking at.
"I could take Thomas Partey in midfield, from Atletico Madrid and Adrien Rabiot from Juventus.
"I’d love to see Kalidou Koulibaly at the back as Arsenal struggle with quick forwards and Koulibaly is quick and an excellent defender.
"That’s the position, especially after the North London derby, where we need someone who can cover ground pretty well."
Atletico Madrid are set to lose midfielder Partey this summer - once a prospective buyer meets his £45.5million release clause .
