Arsenal FC looking to lure devastating right back
Snippets of information are flowing out of Milan that Arsenal could be about to lure Inter Milan’s high octane attacking right back Maicon.
The 29 year old has been at the Serie A giants since 2006 picking up well over 250 appearances and scoring a whopping 65 goals in the process. He shall be 30 in July but feedback is claiming that the defender is stalling on any extension which is set to run down by 2013 and Inter Milan will be keen to listen to any serious offers.
Although Arsenal seem ok in that area of the pitch, and much more has been made regarding a move for a quality centre-back, attack is considered the best form of defence and should any information received at footybunker.com turn out to be true then Arsenal could be on the verge of singing one of the World’s best right backs, arguably ever.
Although his form last season was not his best, with Gareth Bale giving him a good run for his money, Maicon will surely be prepared to do battle again and where better than in the Premiership for England’s most attacking teams? His age will of course be a factor for Arsene Wenger however when one sees so many 30 plus players still able to produce the goods at such a high level then surely Maicon at Arsenal cannot be a bad thing whatsoever.
