Arsenal

5 promising defenders Arsenal should sign

|

Niklas Sule, 20, Hoffenheim

My first choice would be 20-year-old Hoffenheim centre back Niklas Sule who is one of the most promising and complete young defenders in Europe. The German is built like a tank and his aggressive and powerful performances in the Bundesliga have seen his stock rise hugely over the past two seasons.

He has brains as well as brawn and is a dominant and composed defender despite his young age. He’s been linked with Dortmund, Bayern and the Gunners in the past for a fee of around £8m, but if he keeps performing the way he is that figure could rise significantly. He will undoubtedly end up at a top club in the coming years, and would be a great signing for Arsenal to add some steel and fear factor to our back line for the future.
