Good signing for Arsenal?

Mertens is a very good player who has been superb for Napoli over the years, and he would be a very good signing in the short term, especially for the reported £10 million.

However, the Gunners should not expect him to be a massive success in the long run, and he also does not have any re-sale value.

If Arsenal want reinforcements in their quest to finish in the top four of the Premier League table this season, then Mertens would not be a bad signing next month.
