7 Players Arsenal Need To Sign This Summer
5. Sokratis Papastathopoulos (Borussia Dortmund)
The Borussia Dortmund centre-back has been identified by Arsenal's head of recruitment Sven Mislintat as a replacement for the retiring Per Mertesacker, and as a result of only having a year left on his deal with the Bundesliga giants should be a snip at around £17m.
Konstantinos Mavropanos has been blooded by Arsene Wenger this season and could benefit from the experience of his compatriot too. Furthermore, Granit Xhaka basically confirmed the transfer after liking a comment about it on his Instagram (yes that's how transfer rumours work nowadays).
The other signing mentioned on Xhaka's Insta apparently coming to Arsenal?
