3. Layvin Kurzawa
A handy option for Arsenal to have is Layvin Kurzawa, especially in times like this. The reason why he is so handy to have available is that he would arrive for free, given he runs out of contract at the Parc des Princes this summer and it doesn’t look likely he will sign a new contract.
Paris Saint-Germain have pretty much made their intentions clear in recent weeks since they are on the lookout for left-back options to replace the Frenchman.

The acquisition of Kurzawa divides opinion among Arsenal fans since many claim he wouldn’t actually be an upgrade on Kolasinac, but beggars can’t be choosers. I beg to differ, though, since he would be an upgrade. He would actually be available for selection, for starters, since he won’t be on the treatment table anywhere near as much as Kolasinac.
Kurzawa, like Kolasinac, likes to get forward as much as possible. He is a very physical player too, so he won’t exactly back out of any 50/50 challenges. It’s this kind of resilience which will serve Arteta well as and when he needs to replace Kieran Tierney in the starting XI.
Who do you think Arsenal will bring in to replace Sead Kolasinac this summer?
