Ryan Bertrand

Arsenal have reached a consensus to sign Ryan Bertrand this summer according to the Daily Mail.

The reported Gunners target will be released once this season runs out and Southampton has confirmed the obvious.

Going trophyless this season is a clear indication that does not warrant any explanation that Arsenal are in need of new players to strengthen up the setup come next season.

The report of the Southampton left-back goes to show that Arsenal has stepped up their talks to bring Ryan to the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners are in dire need of additional left-backs to support Kieran Tierney in their defensive setup comes next season and it looks like Ryan Bertrand, a Champions League winner with Chelsea in 2012 is very much on the agenda.

Arsenal’s taskmaster, Mikel Arteta will get another left-back option in the form of Sead Kolasinac this summer following the end of his half-season loan with relegated Schalke in the German Bundesliga.

And with that in mind, the Gunners are going to need Tierney’s back-up to be a brilliant one, because he might wind up playing quite a lot of games, and Ryan seems to be that player to fit that position.
