Hey Fab. Are you hearing anything on Clement Lenglet? Cover Barca for Fansided and we heard he's not playing in the pre-season out of caution while they work on his exit...but that seems to have gone very quiet.

Absolutely--prefer Thomas next season. I hope their able to extend his contract, he’s vital to the now. They will need a replacement, but there are and will be other options.

There is the issue with City’s buy back clause as well.

No . Partey is still an important player for us but Lavia is an ideal replacement and can have a year to prepare to take over from Partey next season . Succession planning !

Thomas Partey is crucial to Arsenal's title chances, even if he doesn't stay available for every game. When managed well he is THE Beast!

I agree with this. As nice as it would be to bring Lavia in as a replacement, Partey is reliable and strong in the role and we can’t afford to have a “learning curve” early in the season. Perhaps during the winter xfer season after we see how Declan gets on
