Ben White

Arsenal signed the center back from Brighton for 50 million pounds on Friday, July 30th, 2021. They will hope that the English man brings his form into the team by ensuring he gets his body on the line and there will be few errors leading to goals from his end. White started all games for Brighton last season except for two under manager Graham Potter. The defender is excellent on the ball and has a fantastic pass range and, keeping 11 clean sheets. He can play at the Right back or the wing-back.

Albert Sambi Lokonga

Sambi Lokonga is a defensive midfielder who joined the Gunners on a 4 year-deal from Anderlecht for 18 million pounds on Monday, July 19th, 2021. He can get himself out of tight spaces, is good with long passes, and is excellent with quick passes. We expect him to get drafted into the team immediately except Arsenal signs another player who plays the same position as he does.

Arsenal is still looking to strengthen their attack, but the Gunners will have to sell some players to provide funds that will enable them to get new players.
