The Champions League was back in action this week, with Arsenal clinching a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Sevilla. This triumph propels the Gunners to the top of the table, especially noteworthy after their recent stumble against Lens.
While Arsenal’s on-pitch endeavours kept fans on the edge, behind the scenes, the club was also scouting potential talents. Sources from AFTV have confirmed that Arsenal’s watchful eyes were present at the Benfica vs Real Sociedad match.
Two names that stood out, and have previously been on Arsenal’s radar, were Martin Zubimedni of Spain and the talented Takefusa Kubo. Their respective performances, rated 7.7 and 8.2 by fotmob and surely caught the attention of those watching.
Mikel Arteta has always emphasized the importance of having multiple transfer strategies – Plans A, B, and C. Given this, it’s unsurprising that Arsenal remains vigilant in tracking elite talent. While it’s yet to be seen if these scouting efforts materialize into transfers, it’s reassuring for fans to know that the club is actively seeking top talent across Europe.
