Arsenal and Liverpool chase highly rated Argentine defender - originally posted on Soccerlens.com
Arsenal are back in the race for Sporting’s highly rated left back Marcos Rojo, according to reports from Portuguese newspaper A Bola.
Last month we reported that Liverpool have sent scouts to watch the left-back, who can also play as a centre-back, and they’re highly impressed with what they saw.
Arsenal showed keen interest in him in the early part of the season and despite claims from Daily Mail recently that the Gunners are weighing up a bid for him, there was hardly any report of him linking with Arsenal in Portuguese press.
However, today A Bola reports that Arsenal have once again reignited their interest in the player but no offers have been placed for him.
Liverpool need a solid left-back in the summer and are scouting few options as well like Alberto Moreno of Sevilla. Arsenal are looking for a central defender, as skipper Thomas Veramelen could leave the club in the summer.
Should Arsenal invest money of Rojo? Well, he is a good defender, no doubt and would come in cheap, but is he the type of player Arsenal should sign in the summer?
