Understand we receive a 25m bid for Mustafi in the summer. Board were happy to accept with Diallo the preferred replacement of Sven.
However Unai requested he stay because of concerns over Kos fitness and inexperience of other defenders.
In the end Unai convinced board to reject offer and focus was switched to buying experience.
Sokratis was signed, upon recommendation of Sven and then Unai was granted his wish of bringing Lichsteiner in - who he identified as the leader Arsenal were missing.
Unai fan boys will attack me but that’s the truth. Lichstafi was Unais idea of the perfect blend between youth & experience.
Shocking
I would love to have a seat on the Arsenal board and have those insider informations as well. Lucky guy! Please post again once you exit the next board meeting.
