Arsenal fans suffered heartbreak in 2012 when Manchester United pinched Robin van Persie from Arsene Wenger.
The Red Devils were able to sign the Dutchman for just £24m as he had only one year remaining on his contract, which represented a bargain for someone who had just scored 37 goals in the 2011/12 campaign.
Van Persie went on to hurt Arsenal fans even more by winning the Premier League title in his first season at Old Trafford, with his old teammates even giving him a guard of honour at the Emirates Stadium.
Now, however, the north Londoners could get revenge.
Arsenal eye Alejandro Garnacho
Well, Arsenal fans also suffered when seeing the likes of Samir Nasri, Cesc Fabregas and Emmanuel Adebayor join rival sides, although the Gunners could now become the predator rather than the prey.
90min believe Arsenal are interested in signing Manchester United wonderkid Alejandro Garnacho after his breakthrough under Erik ten Hag.
Some Manchester United fans may scoff at that rumour, although if the Gunners secure Champions League football and the Red Devils do not, the move is certainly possible.
Garnacho announced himself as one of the most exciting talents in the Premier League with a late winner in the 2-1 win over Fulham on Sunday, on what was just his fifth Premier League appearance.
Manchester United fans have since been drooling over the Argentinian wonderkid’s potential, so it would be a real gut punch if Arsenal managed to steal him.
Alejandro Garnacho would thrive at Arsenal
Having seen how well the likes of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli have developed under Mikel Arteta, we believe Garnacho would also thrive under the Spaniard.
The South American sensation is an old fashioned winger who loves to get his head down and run, similar to Martinelli before Arteta helped him discover a killer instinct in the final third.
Should Garnacho end up in north London, where Arsenal find themselves in a title race, it is quite possible that he lifts the Premier League before Manchester United win it.
If that happened, it would be sweet revenge for Arsenal after the situation involving Van Persie.
