That has left many to expect the Emirates Stadium side to be active in the summer transfer window, with a new attacking midfielder high on the recruitment team’s agenda. He was linked with a move to the Emirates in the January transfer window and it appears that Arsenal will renew their interest in the midfielder. One man who has already stated his delight with Buendia is Messi, who faced him numerous times during the former’s five-year spell at Getafe.
