Eagle Scouting Arsenal Target Tin Jedvaj – “The Wonder Defender”

With rumors linking both Thomas Vermaelen and Laurent Koscielny with a move away from Emirates, Arsenal are now in a mission to strengthen their defense. Swansea City captain Ashley Williams is believed to be their first choice target in Summer. But now the latest reports suggest that Arsenal are in talks with Dinamo Zagreb to sign their explosive young defender Tin Jedvaj.

Tin Jedvaj was linked with Roma earlier, but a fee disagreement between the two parties suspended further talks. This situation encourages Arsenal to make their move for the future star. A fee of 6 million pounds would be enough to lure the star away from Dinamo Zagreb.

So, What’s Special about him?

Jedvaj talent level is immense considering his tender age. He is a product of the famous Dinamo Zagreb academy (originally from  NK Zagreb). Tin Jedvaj has everything in his armor to make him a great premier league defender. He is fast, has great tackles and good vertical leap to win Ariel battles. He is a ball carrying central defender who is versatile enough to play as a right back and defensive midfielder.  He is just one of those players who radiates class every time he touches the ball.

Tin Jedvaj is expected to make his full international debut for Croatia soon as he was already called to train with the senior team. Arsenal move will be more beneficial for Jedvaj as he will be under the guidance of Arsene Wenger who is known for his ability to turn raw talents into super stars. Good luck Tin Jedvaj!
