Unai Emery identifies former player as top target

Arsenal boss Unai Emery has since settled down as Gunners boss and has obviously moved on from where his predecessor Arsene Wenger was at the beginning of the season.

The Spanish boss has since returned the North London side back to winning ways as well as helping to stand firm against big teams which also adds to the 20 games unbeaten at a stretch.

However, the former PSG boss is still willing to add more flesh to his squad and he is reported to be looking towards the direction of Argentina midfielder Ever Banega.

Unai Emery is believed to be a big fan of Ever Banega having worked with him at the Spanish La Liga side Sevilla and will be seeking a reunion at the Emirates Stadium,

The Spanish boss had once confessed that he met a team that was not in good shape but vowed to keep working hard to ensure the team play at a higher level.

Suggestions are that Emery has identified the weakness of the Gunners team and will begin to work on having their solutions starting from the winter transfer window which reopens in the coming weeks.

The Unai Emery side is currently unbeaten in 20 games across all competitions which include an 11-game winning streak.
