I think  that provided everything is ok with FFP eze should be our number one target. He can left right or behind striker. Palace have even admitted they cant hold him for long. He is still only 26.

I think he is a outstanding footballer. Him and ollie would just be wet dreams

BBC with a free agent pick for each standard position.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cpvyjwjr17no
Interesting non of them have moved to Saudi.

I'm surprised Rabiot hasn't gone anywhere.  He's a decent player, and only 29.  Not for us obviously (we're well stocked in midfield), but he could do a good job for half the teams in the premier league.  Can only assume his wages are a problem.

Juventus were paying him £7.5m per season. And he's decent, but it's pretty easy to see why they were happy to completely replace their midfield over the summer.
I've read he's a bit of a dickhead and has a difficult agent (his mom). No other details though.

Yeah, Philippe Auclair is certainly not a fan.

He seems to have softened his stance on him a bit since the World Cup though.

A little, although he did give a little 'snigger' when he was mentioned to be clubless last time I heard him.

TRANSFER COMPLETE ✅

We’re very pleased to have supported Owen Asemota’s move from
@Arsenal

Owen is a talented young goalkeeper and we’re really looking forward to seeing him continue to develop. 📈

A big thank you to him and his family for trusting us to make this happen. 🤝

Go shine Owen! ✨

We can always stick them in the stands so it won't look as bad on TV when the boycott happens.

No way should we be signing Arsenal reject goalkeepers.

This kid seemed to have enormous hands from the picture. Useful for a Keeper I guess.

The proliferation of youthful goalkeepers don't count against squad numbers. Hause does. He won't be in the squad.
