Patrick Vieira, conclusive: “Jhon Durán is the right player for Arsenal”

You do not need a cover letter. Jhon Durán‘s start to the season with Aston Villa is ineffable. And if there is still any doubt, then the numbers are there to scare it away. His eight goals in 14 appearances – in all competitions – have opened the debate about whether must be owner or notabove Ollie Watkins, who in the previous season broke it with 27 goals in 53 official commitments. But, what was said. At this start of the campaign, Jhon Durán is synonymous with goals for Aston Villa.

So excellent is the moment that Durán is going through that His name makes noise in every corner of England. Much more so in London, where the rumor of Mikel Arteta‘s Arsenal has emerged. However, it is just a rumor. But Patrick Vieirahistoric footballer gunnerhas not bit his tongue when talking about the young Colombian attacker, and in a few words delivered to bettingexpert.com he confesses.

“The question is whether Arsenal can achieve their goals with a real goalscorer or with a false number nine. Havertz has performed well since the start of the season and has the potential to fill that role. But, as Manchester City have shown, having a pure forward like Haaland makes it easier to win games“, commented Vieira, to which he added when consulted by Durán: “I loved his performance against Bayern Munich. He is the right player for Arsenal: fast, selfless, solid in the aerial game, technically skilled and intelligent in his movements.”

At 20 years old, Durán has gone from being the future to the present of Villa. In fact, again ‘wet’ the network in the last hoursin the defeat against Crystal Palace for the Carabao Cup. However, it is no secret to anyone that sooner or later he will make the leap to a great, and the first that has begun to follow in his footsteps has been Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal.
