Arsenal may be expecting something of a bidding war for one of their young players once the transfer window opens this summer.
Whilst Mikel Arteta and Edu Gaspar will be putting a lot of attention into the player who will arrive at the club, perhaps departures could be even more important.
It seems that there could be a fair few players who leave, with perhaps Thomas Partey and Emile Smith Rowe being the headliners.
It’s all very hypothetical for now, but it seems Arsenal will undergo something of a squad overhaul, even if they achieve lofty success in the remaining months.
Players arriving at the club will surely all depend on who goes, otherwise Arteta will be burdened with a bloated squad.
And whilst out-on-loan Mika Biereth isn’t exactly included in that situation, it seems he could provide Arsenal with some added funds as a result of his excellent form this season.
According to a new report by The Standard, it seems as if a bidding war could ensue for the 21-year-old in the summer, with Sturm Graz set to face competition in their pursuit to sign the Dane permanently.
Arsenal can expect a bidding war to ensue for red hot striker Mika Biereth this summer
Although it would be incredibly satisfying from an Arsenal fan point of view to see Biereth progress to the first team at the Emirates, that seems unlikely.
Although Biereth has been banging the goals in this campaign, 14 goals in 26 appearances to be precise, it’s a huge step up to Arteta’s first team plans.
Whilst scoring goals for Motherwell and Sturm Graz might grab attention around Europe, it’s not quite an indication that Biereth is ready for Arsenal.
Biereth definitely does have some ‘unbelievable’ traits in his game, but has probably passed his Arsenal chance with just one year left on his contract as of this summer.
The report states that Sturm Graz ‘would love’ to keep the Arsenal man permanently after his loan concludes, but are likely to be part of a bidding war if so.
It bodes well for Arsenal that there’s so much interest in Biereth, a loan success they are perhaps hoping to repeat with Albert Sambi Lokonga at Luton Town in the summer too.
And with all that considered, that perhaps explains why Arsenal have promised a player they’ll move for him this summer.
