Holy f**k, this guy is quick. Don't think I've ever seen such acceleration on a footballer who stands 6'4'' tall.

He looks very capable on the ball as well. Ibrahima Konaté is the name.

We need a young CB to be playing regularly with Papa so they learn the tricks of the trade rapidly

Whether it be Holding or a new CB, they need to be no older than ~24 really, this fella is 19

We have Holding, Mavropanos, Chambers and Bielik. All kinda young and raw.
Then we have Papa and Koscielny over 30. The only one who is in his prime age is Mustafi and hes shit. Id say we rather need a CB in his prime, so in the age of 24-28.

Get rid of Mustafi and loan out a few youngsters and partner Papa with the new signing.

Chambers and Bielik have no future at the club, still question marks over Mavropanos who didn’t even make the Europa League squad registration

I agree....chambrs was assessed during the pre season and emery thought he was the worst cb he had and not good enough. then went to the worst defense in the league and they decided he wasnt good enough to play at cb. Him and bielek has absolutely no future. Holding is question mark and kos is past it, Mustafi loool is all I got

Another CB? How many is that now?

Mari and Saliba pretty much haven't even played for us yet.

The Gunners have found a new centre-back target

Arsenal will make a formal offer for RB Leipzig defender Ibrahima Konate in the coming weeks, according to TodoFichajes.

Mikel Arteta is eager to sign the 21-year-old centre-back in January but Leipzig would prefer to sell him at season's end.


If he knew what's good for him, he'd stay away
