With Mikel Arteta’s contract running out and also with age not being on the Spaniard’s side there are several media reports linking Lars Bender to Arsenal. It is indeed a known fact that Arsene Wenger is a huge fan of the German and would do everything within his power to bring Bender to Arsenal, if possible. With a reported huge war chest at Arsene Wenger’s disposal here are three reasons why Lars Bender should be the number one target for Arsenal.
1. Tireless legs to replace an ageing Mikel Arteta:
While Mikel Arteta has indeed served Arsenal well in the last few years it is indeed no secret that the speed of the Spaniard has diminished substantially over the years. Whether Arsene Wenger decides to award Mikel Arteta a new contract or not, the thing which is clear now is that Arteta has to be used much sparingly if Arsenal wants the best out of him. Lars Bender in comparison is a young player with an extraordinary amount of stamina. With a work ethic which puts most athletes to shame he would be the perfect upgradation Arsenal needs in order to realize their dreams in the midst of the lessening of the noose in reference to the stadium debts. The amount of running Bender will be able to do might very well push Arsenal to that elusive Premier League trophy.
2. Long term prospect for Arsenal
Aged only 24 years, Lars Bender is yet to enter the peak of his career. If Arsenal is to indeed sign him then the Gunners would probably be the lucky club to get the best of Bender at the prime of his career. While this German superstar won’t come cheap it indeed makes sense to splurge the cash given how he can actually give long term stability to the position of defensive midfield. With his career already in great motion at Bayer Leverkusen, a move for this prodigious German would all but signal the strengthening of the side in a very crucial position.
3. Signal of intent from Arsene Wenger
With Arsene Wenger having to play conservatively in the financial front for all those years and having to settle for Champions League football after their move to the Emirates Stadium, this season was the first time Arsenal showed a sign of intent by signing the German Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid for a club record fee. With the latest figures showing that the burden of debts is significantly lower and not to mention that Arsenal is ahead in terms of payment for the Stadium, it is speculated that the Arsenal manager has a huge war chest at his disposal. However much he decides to spend is another matter but signing Lars Bender would be a huge signal that Arsenal are ready to go toe to toe financially with the big boys with two marquee signings in back to back seasons.
