“Crucial player” – Fabrizio Romano delivers hugely positive Arsenal transfer update this morning

Saliba to PSG stories are perhaps to be expected, given that the Gunners defender is one of the finest players in the world in his position, and a French talent from the Paris region, but Romano seems convinced that fans of the north London giants have no reason to fear losing this important member of their squad.

Speaking exclusively to CaughtOffside for the latest edition of his Daily Briefing column, Romano made it clear that he’s not aware of PSG actually making any concrete offers for Saliba at the moment, while the 23-year-old is also perfectly happy at the Emirates Stadium.

Arsenal will need to keep players like Saliba if they are to stand a chance of enjoying success any time soon, with the former Nice and Marseille loanee proving a hugely important player for Mikel Arteta’s side since becoming a regular starter two years ago.

In the past, Arsenal often sold their star names to Europe’s elite, but it seems there’s no reason to panic over Saliba’s future at the moment.
