Arsenal on the Verge of Shocking Bayern Munich Star Signing – What’s Behind the Bold Move?
It’s certainly true that in the past couple of years, Martinelli has played more of a touchline-hugging role on that left-hand side, despite being right-footed – and that plenty of the frustration that he’s evoked in Arsenal fans comes from his penchant for trying to beat full-backs on the outside, as he prefers to head for the touchline and cross rather than break into the box and shoot.
Well, perhaps that’s why Arsenal are targeting Sane.
You only have to look at Sane’s City spell to see what he’d do at Arsenal: the German was a left-footed left-winger who would use his pace to stretch the attack and create space for those in-field. Playing the same role under Arteta, he could end up creating plenty of space for Declan Rice’s runs from deep, while offering a more natural crossing angle.
