Arsenal Urged to Sign World Cup Stars Amrabat and Ounahi in January Transfer Window

Current leader of the Premier League, Arsenal will have to strengthen in January to hope to hold its rank until the end of the season, not without competition, warned the former Gunners player. In this sense, Ray Parlour has urged the club’s officials to take advantage of the next winter transfer window to strengthen the midfield of the team led by Mikel Arteta.

In an interview with TalkSport, the former midfielder proposed to the Spanish coach to recruit the Moroccan internationals Sofyan Amrabat and Azzedine Ounahi, authors of a monstrous performance at the World Cup with the Moroccan national team. The two players played an essential role in the laudable journey of the Atlas Lions.

"Ounahi, the number 8, he’s a different class. Would I take him to Arsenal? He just looked so comfortable, he was always in the half-turn and looking to probe and try to play balls behind the full-backs. Amrabat, he’s a player too. If I was Arsenal, I’d be looking at him. Central midfielder, he can put his foot in. A very good player," he said.
