In the current team, for example, Bukayo Saka, Reiss Nelson, Joe Willock and Eddie Nketiah are important members of Mikel Arteta’s plans. And there are a few others waiting in the wings, including New York-born striker Folarin Balogun.

While none of the above players are defenders, Walters has every reason to be optimistic as the Gunners are expected to renew their defensive unit soon. As a result, they’re likely to discharge aging, unwanted stars like Sokratis and Shkodran Mustafi as David Luiz also approaches the final stages of his career.
