Donyell Malen said in February that he would be willing to return to Arsenal, where he previously played as an academy player from 2015 to 2017.
Florian Plettenberg from Sky recently disclosed that Arsenal and Liverpool were among the ‘most serious’ transfer destinations for Malen. The German journalist said that for at least £34 million, the North Londoners could re-sign the winger, who was open to return to the UK.
Charles Watts has recently laid out a compelling case for Mikel Arteta to prioritize completing Malen’s swoop. Watts believes Arsenal can’t go wrong by replacing him with Malen — why so?
Watts describes the Borrussia Dortmund player as an upgrade to Nelson on his YouTube channel, saying, “He’s talked very openly about wanting to come back to Arsenal if he does come back to the Premier League.. He wouldn’t be at the top of my list, I have to say, from what I’ve seen of him, but he’s certainly an interesting player who can fill those positions… As much as I like Reiss Nelson, I think he would certainly be an upgrade.”
With 11 goals and three assists in 23 games, the Dutch international would undoubtedly be a valuable addition to this Arsenal team. As Arsenal is also anxious about finding a trustworthy Saka backup. Could Malen be that guy?.
