According to Bild, Arsenal are keen on a move for Corentin Tolisso this summer, and looking back on his past comments, the Frenchman may be open to the transfer.
Indeed, despite the fact Tolisso has played for some of Europe’s biggest clubs, he’s had great things to say about Arsenal in the past, stating that they are among the clubs he dreams of playing for, alongside Real Madrid and Barcelona.
What’s he said?
Back in 2016, Tolisso admitted that he dreams of playing for Arsenal in the Premier League.
“Many clubs make me dream like Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and England with teams like Arsenal,” Tolisso told France Football.
“I love the Premier League and I think I have the profile. This is the championship that also offers more competition, which is the most open, the most hard-fought and most spectacular.”
The type of player Arsenal need
Arsenal certainly need this type of player in their squad.
Tolisso clearly respects the Gunners’ history and he believes that he has the right profile to play in the Premier League.
The Bayern Munich man is certainly talented enough to play at this level. After all, he is a World Cup winner, and if the Gunners get him it will be something of a coup.
Tolisso’s past comments on Arsenal should excited the Gunners fanbase.
