Fenerbahce defender Ferdi Kadioglu is said to have agreed personal terms with Arsenal and he could become their first new recruit in the 2024 summer transfer window.

Positive progress is being made in the negotiations between Arsenal and Kadioglu’s agent, according to Sport Witness. Mikel Arteta was drawn to the 24-year-old full-back due to his versatility; Arteta is still determined to bolster his defensive options come summertime.

Jurrien Timber’s signing last summer is one example of the kind of versatile player Arteta has consistently stressed is needed. In addition to playing in the center, the Dutchman is a capable defender on either wing.

The North London team is hoping to add another full-back of comparable caliber to strengthen their defensive options as the summer transfer window approaches.

Ferdi Kadioglu and I have been communicating for a few months now. The Dutch-born full-back has reportedly agreed to a contract with Arsenal, according to recent sources in Türkiye.

Fenerbahce want twenty million euros in this transaction. Arsenal can easily afford this fee, especially considering their strong resolve to improve the caliber of their team in order to contend for championships the next year.

Arteta is pursuing a new center-back in addition to bringing in a full-back. Jorrel Hato of Ajax and Ousmane Diomande of Sporting Lisbon are the primary targets.

The fact that Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba, the starting center back duo, remained virtually injury-free the entire season was a great blessing for the Gunners.

Arsenal will have a lot of problems if one of the two is not there. Takehiro Tomiyasu, Jakub Kiwior, and Jurrien Timber are just a few of the players that have failed to instill confidence in the central defense position. Arteta desires a top-tier midfield player to bolster the defense before to the upcoming campaign.
