He would also strengthen Arsenal defensively. Guimaraes is an excellent ball-winner who reads the game well, allowing teammates like Declan Rice to play with greater freedom while providing added protection in front of the back four.

As well as his defensive qualities, Guimaraes offers creativity with his ability to pick out line-breaking passes and quickly turn defence into attack. His Premier League experience and leadership would make him an immediate asset as Arsenal continue to compete for major honours.
