Roma midfielder Manu Kone is eager to join Arsenal this summer, having shown impressive form in Serie A. His current contract expires in 2029, making a transfer difficult for Arsenal.

According to a recent report from Quotidiano Sportivo, Roma midfielder Manu Kone is keen to join Arsenal this summer. It has been reported that the French talent is dreaming of a move to the Gunners in the coming months. Kone has enjoyed a good season at the Italian club, showcasing a number of impressive performances in Serie A. Last season, the 25-year-old scored a pair of goals and provided three assists in 37 games for Roma in all competitions. Currently, Kone is considered one of the most talented central midfielders in Serie A, so the Gunners would be wise to bring him on board this transfer window. His current contract with Roma expires in the summer of 2029, which could make it difficult for Arsenal to acquire him at an affordable price. Kone loves to intervene and knows how to read the game, managing to make important interceptions in the defensive phase. Usually, he clears his area when necessary and is also a good passer. The Frenchman is capable of contributing with goals and assists from midfield. Kone primarily operates as a box-to-box midfielder, but can also fill the role of midfielder or attacking midfielder if needed. However, there are some concerns over his ability to adapt to the physicality and intensity of the Premier League, should the Gunners sign him this summer. We expect Kone to add quality and depth to Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta's midfield. He has everything it takes to fight for a starting place at the Emirates Stadium next season. At 25, Kone has his best years ahead of him, making him a great choice for Arsenal in this summer transfer window. It will also help the North London club compete on multiple fronts in the coming years. Therefore, Arteta would be wise to take the first steps to sign him this summer.
