Jorginho's first Arsenal training session with Zinchenko, Saka, Martinelli and Odegaard making more different

 Arsenal can complete dream Arsene Wenger vision with ideal Jorginho teammate transfer

Arsenal transfer news: The Gunners have added Jorginho to their ranks but could pair him with another move.

Although Arsenal haven't added youthful energy to their squad over the winter they have catered to the needs of Mikel Arteta. Jorginho isn't the glamour pick but he's a player that Arteta admires and is easy to see fitting in with the Spaniard's squad.

The Italian, at 31, is now the oldest player in the squad and is a different type of player to those seen at the Emirates Stadium this season. His lack of physicality is very different to Thomas Partey and his play style is slower, but it doesn't mean there isn't a very important role for him though.

He adds valuable experience from some of the biggest games in world football and also just being a different option gives Arteta new choices. For £12m on a 18-month deal it is hard to see the move going badly wrong. He was a well-liked character in the Chelsea squad and has played nearly 150 Premier League matches across four-and-a-half years

The Daily Mail have previously reported that Blues star N'Golo Kante would be of interest to Arsenal. With the Frenchman entering his final six months on his contract he will be eligible to leave for free over the summer. Although football.london understands that Kante is involved in new talks to renew his deal there is still a chance he moves on.

With a raft of new, young players coming in at Stamford Bridge it is only natural that his role in the squad comes under question. He's also a player that has been admired amongst those in north London.

Speaking in 2021 Arsene Wenger admitted that Kante could have played in red before he even joined Leicester. The former Arsenal boss said: "He [Kante] played for a club in Paris that's called Suresnes where one of my best friends is director and he told me, 'Please, I have a player we know that is unbelievable. Nobody wants him in France.'

"He took him in his car and travelled with him from club to club. And finally, a club from division three in France (Boulogne) took N'Golo Kante. It's an unbelievable story. You could make a film about him as well. And he is something that you don’t find often. He wins the ball without making any foul, and straight away he moves that ball forward."

Wenger and Arsenal were struggling in midfield at the time and never found a settled selection that pushed them back onto Premier League success. Kante may well have helped with that but it's not too late. Partnering him at Arsenal with Jorginho, even on a short-term deal, may well help both parties.

The pair featured together 124 times at Chelsea, winning 67 of the matches in which they were on the field at the same time. Although as a partnership they were never perfect in either box it is a set of experienced players that most managers would snap at the chance to sign.

Arsenal are on a very different path currently but if the opportunity to sign Kante arises it could help them get the best out of their

new £12m man.
