Arsenal makes a big offer to sign “the best player in Europe”

The transfer window has been open for over three weeks, and despite their recent struggles, Arsenal They have yet to sign a single one.

Mikel Arteta The side has just won Two of six games this monthWith the likes of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Jesus missing due to long-term injuries and Ethan Nwanyere just back from a setback, fans have been clamoring for the club to recruit in the forward areas.

While no one has come through the doors yet, there has been a plethora of top talent touted for a move to N5, From Benjamin Shishko, RB Leipzig player to Juventus player Dusan Vlahovicbut perhaps the most important links have been over the past few years It's been days for Wolverhampton star Matthews Cunha.

However, Premier League The star is not the only Brazilian that Arsenal are supposedly interested in, with recent reports linking him with one of the continent's best talents who would be a better signing than the Wolves player.

Arsenal are targeting the exciting winger

according to A recent report from SpainArsenal has reignited their interest in the Barcelona star RafinhaBut they are not the only English team tracking the exciting winger.

Along with the Gunners, the report revealed that Manchester City is now keen on signing the Brazilian winger who has been very exciting for the Blaugrana this season.

Worse still, the report claims the Premier League champions are prepared to offer around £84m for him in the summer, which would spoil the north Londoners' supposed £67.5m bid.

Overall, it looks like the battle for Rafinha's signature this year could be a tough and expensive one, but given his insane production this season, it's a battle Arsenal must fight to win, especially since he would be a better signing than Cunha.

How does Raven compare to her universe?

Well, the first thing to talk about is, yes, there is an important difference between Cunha and Rafinha, which is that the former tends to start in central areas while the latter mostly plays from the right or left.

However, as most Arsenal fans will attest, the north Londoners are in need of reinforcements across the entire frontline this month, so either player would be a welcome addition, but from what we've seen this season, we think the Barcelona star will be the better player. Better signature.

For example, In only 30 matchesIn a total of 2,477 minutes, the former Leeds United star has scored 22 goals and provided 11 assists, meaning he is currently averaging a goal contribution every 0.90 games, or every 75.06 minutes.

On the other hand, the Old Gold striker scored ten goals and four goals Assisted in 22 matchesFor a total of 1717 minutes, that is, an average of participating in a goal every 1.57 matches, or every 122.64 minutes.

However, it's not just about raw production that he is considered the 'best player in Europe'. Journalist Dougie Critchley called itcomfortably outperforms wolves. It's also way ahead when we compare their underlying numbers.

For example, the Porto Alegre-born winger leads in almost every measure, including but not limited to actual and expected non-penalty goals, as well as assists, shots and shots on goal, progressive passes, key passes and assists. Inside the penalty area. Creation moves, shots and more, all for Per 90.

Finally, while he has been away from the league for a few years, Rafinha has plenty of experience playing in England, so Cunha's advantage in Premier League knowledge is rendered meaningless in this comparison.

Ultimately, Arsenal are in desperate need of new strikers this month, and if they can only sign one, they should give their all for the Barcelona star, because what he is doing this season is nothing short of exceptional, and if he can do that in north London, there goes. Great chance to lead Arsenal to the title.
