5 Potential replacements for Aaron Ramsey at Arsenal

Arsenal v Everton - Premier League
Ramsey is loved by the Arsenal faithful

#2. Piotr Zielinski (Napoli)

Red Star Belgrade v SSC Napoli - UEFA Champions League Group C
Zielinski has captured everyone's imagination

The Polish international has been turning heads with his performances this term for his club, Napoli. Even at the World Cup, where Poland were miserable, Zielinski was one of the few who could hold their head high.

Zielinski plays slightly higher up the pitch than Ramsey and prefers playing as an attacking midfielder. His versatility and ability to play anywhere across the midfield makes him an exciting option for the Gunners.

His biggest trait is his ability to waltz past opposition players, using his sumptuous dribbling prowess. In addition to this, his creativity is second to none and he prides himself on creating opportunities out of nothing. With Aubameyang and Lacazette leading the line, the prospect of Ozil, Mkhitaryan and Zielinski feeding them is a delicious one indeed.

At 24 years of age, the Polish midfielder has his best years ahead of him. The Gunners need to ensure that his best years are played at the Emirates rather than at the San Paolo.

Though it would cost an absolute fortune to even make Napoli contemplate selling their prized asset, Zielinski’s attributes make him worth every penny. As of now, the only thing the Gooners can do is wait with bated breath and hope that Arsenal goes all-out for this exciting Polish talent.
