Arsenal could do with bolstering their attacking ranks this summer as well as bringing in a deputy for Takehiro Tomiyasu.

As luck would have it, a winger with experience of playing at right-back has effectively issued a come-get-me plea to the Gunners.

Colo Colo winger Cristian Zavala, speaking on a virtual Q&A session on the club’s socials, said Arsenal are his dream club.

A fan asked the Chile international the following question: “If you had the opportunity to go to Europe to play and take only one teammate from the squad with you, who would you take and why?”

Interestingly, Zavala wasn’t asked which club in particular he’d like to join in Europe, but he gave the answer anyway.

Dale Albo quotes the 22-year-old as saying: “I would go to Europe to the club that I have always dreamed of, Arsenal.

“And I would take my great teammate Maxi Falcon because he is one of those who makes me laugh the most and I find him a great player.”

Could Arsenal maybe strike a two-for-one deal with Colo Colo?

Jokes aside, it’s great to hear a rising star in South American football express his love for Arsenal and desire to play for the Gunners.

It shows just how high Arsenal’s standing is in world football.

And with the Gunners flying high in the Premier League, surely it won’t be long before they’re at the top table again.
