Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing the Eintracht Frankfurt defender Nathaniel Brown. 

According to a report from Fichajes, the 22-year-old is valued at €60 million (£52m), and Arsenal are hoping to get the deal done in the near future. They will face competition from clubs like Real Madrid and Manchester City. It remains to be seen whether they come forward with an official offer to get the deal done.

The 22-year-old left back has shown his quality in Germany, and there is no doubt that he has the technical attributes to do well in the Premier League as well. However, the move to Arsenal might not make a lot of sense.

The Gunners already have Myles Lewis-Skelly and Riccardo Calafiori capable of operating in that role. They should look to invest in the other areas of their squad instead. Even though Brown has outperformed both players last season, Arsenal are unlikely to replace them immediately.

Brown could be a solid addition

Brown is capable of operating as a wide player and a wing-back. He has a goal and two assists to his name this season.
