Dean Ashton raved about reported Arsenal target and Norwich City attacking midfielder Emiliano Buendia on talkSPORT (4:42pm, February 25, 2021).
The former Norwich striker believes that Buendia is an incredible player, and has suggested that he was a bargain signing for the Canaries.
According to The Eastern Daily Press, the Canaries paid Getafe £1.5 million to sign the 24-year-old in the summer of 2018.
Mundo Deportivo reported in January 2021 that the agent of the Norwich star plans to hold talks with Arsenal over a potential move to the Emirates Stadium in the summer of 2021.
Ashton said about Buendia on talkSPORT (4:42pm, February 25, 2021): “Buendia, incredible player for what they got him for.”
Would Emiliano Buendia make Arsenal better?
Emile Smith Rowe and Martin Odegaard are the two main attacking midfielders in the current Arsenal team.
While Smith Rowe is just 20 years of age, Odegaard is only on loan from Real Madrid, and the Gunners could need a new player for that position at the end of the season.
Buendia has played in the Premier League and is a very creative player, and at 24, he is at the right age to make an impact at a big club such as Arsenal.
According to WhoScored, the Argentine attacking midfielder has scored nine goals and provided nine assists in 26 Championship matches for Norwich so far this season, and scored one goal and gave seven assists in 28 Premier League starts for the Canaries in 2019-20.
