Arsène Wenger put in 2018 full stop to his stay at the head of the Arsenal, where was trainer during more than two decades. In some recent statements for 'beIN Sports', analysed the market of signings and spoke of the possibility that the FC Barcelona reinforce with a leading centre of face to the next summer, leaving clear that does not agree with that this suceda.

In fact, the mythical ex technician of the group 'gunner' justified his point of view warning that Luis Suárez, to his 33 years, still keeps on being an ariete fully competitive that does not need to be replaced by the moment. "The Barcelona always has bought to the best players. Personally, I am not safe that Suárez have to be replaced in these moments", said.

"I am not safe that Luis Suárez have to be replaced now"

On the one hand, Wenger recognised that fichar to a leading centre could help to that the group of Quique Setién did not have so much dependency goleadora in the tarpaulin of Leo Messi and of the own Suárez of face to door: "they Can fichar to another forward because it is true that Suárez and Messi are the main goleadores and could need to somebody more than can mark goals".

But, by the another, remembered that the past season arrived Antoine Griezmann pertinent of the Athletic of Madrid, being a player that can go to more in the next months. "But I think that Griezmann sometime will begin to mark goals, since now it does not see entirely adapted. Maybe now after the confinement will improve because it also is a good goleador", added.

In spite of his explanations, Wenger does not have any doubt of the intentions of the FC Barcelona regarding the purchase of an ariete to improve his offensive potential. "In spite of this, am convinced that they also go to fichar to another forward", sentenced, on a decision that the Barcelona directive already took does months and that could do effective in spite of the weakened economic situation to consequence of the coronavirus.
