Depay’s versatility could be key for Arsenal.

Xavi Hernandez brought in Arsenal forward Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang in January, so Depay faces stiff competition for a starting spot at Barcelona.

The Dutchman’s versatility could be attractive to Arteta, with the 28-year-old able to operate anywhere across the front line. Although Arsenal need a striker more than any other position, having extra numbers out wide can only benefit the team.

Being able to rotate the likes of Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Gabriel Martinelli will be vital, especially with the congested fixture list that comes with playing European football.
