Talking on The Kelly & Wrighty Show, the former Arsenal man said:
Van de Beek is the only player that Manchester United have signed so far this summer, and the fans are incredibly unhappy with it. Wright also echoed the thoughts of the Red Devils faithful, stating that while the Dutchman is a good signing, he is not what the Old Trafford giants need right now.
Arsenal are chasing Thomas Partey and Houssem Aouar this summer but are yet to make a breakthrough in negotiations. Both the selling clubs are unwilling to lower their asking price but the Gunners are finding it difficult to raise funds to bid.
Atletico Madrid reportedly want Arsenal to activate the release clause in Thomas Partey’s contract. Reports suggest that it is a €50-million clause, and the Gunners are unwilling to spend so much money at one go.
As for Houssem Aouar, the negotiations are taking place but nothing has materialised so far. Lyon have acknowledged that Arsenal are in the running but are yet meet the asking price.
While talking to Le Progrès, Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas confirmed that there is a good chance the midfielder will stay with them for another season as no club has matched their asking price so far.
