Arsenal look set to miss out on Crystal Palace attacker Eberechi Eze to Tottenham Hotspur, but William Gallas isn’t too concerned.
The former Gunners defender believes Mikel Arteta should turn his focus towards Real Madrid winger Rodrygo instead.
“The talk on Rodrygo has gone quiet, but we all know that he would be in the starting 11 if he did join Arsenal, which means that there would be a player on the bench who was used to playing last season,” Gallas told Jackpot City Casino.
“Would Gabriel Martinelli be happy with not starting? We don’t know. With Eberechi Eze, I think he had a great season with Crystal Palace, but I don’t think he’d be in a starting role with Arsenal.
“He could be in the future, but I’m not sure if he would be straight away. It depends on what Arsenal want to do. If they want to win the league, they need starters.”
