Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta wants to sign 22-year-old Miguel Gutierrez

Miguel was very good going forward, until one game he struggled defensively which wasn't even his fault.
Never played after that. https://t.co/apAArpP4Qp
Certainly, Gutierrez is a player who would suit Mikel Arteta. He has the ability to play as a left-back or a left midfielder. Certainly very attacking in his approach, he could provide sufficient back-up to the star Alex Zinchenko.
Having made eight appearances in the league for Girona and providing one assist, he’s certainly an important member of their team. Therefore, it could take a big offer to persuade them to let the 22-year-old leave. Although, as proven in recent history, Arsenal are prepared to offer big for the players who they think would benefit them the most.
Do you think Arsenal will sign Miguel Gutierrez?
