Ex-Arsenale boss Arsene Wenger decided to continue the signing of Kim Kallstrom, despite his medical that a broken bone revealed in his back, while it seems that there were no worries for Ebereechi Eze
Arsenal was once confronted with immediate regret when signing Kim Kallstrom, as they discovered in his medical, he had a broken back. Fortunately for the Gunners, it is assumed that incoming Ebereechi Eze this week has passed its medical with flag and pennant before his £ 67.5 million relocation from Crystal Palace.
Medicals are not always smooth for Arsenal, who eventually chose to plow ahead with the signing of Kim Kallstrom, although the Swede had a broken vertebrae. It was at the beginning of 2014, and the title from the title of Arsene Wenger had already sustained a wave of injuries within their camp.
Jack Wilshere and Aaron Ramsey were sidelined while Mathieu Flamini was suspended. That led Arsenal to enter the transfer market just before the Deadline of January.
With enormous experience, the 31-year-old Kallstrom of Spartak Moscow seemed like a wise option for Wenger at the time.
Next, however, it emerged that Kallstrom's fitness control should not have received the green light because of the back injury he suffered from playing beach football during a training trip with a warm weather with Spartak in Abu Dhabi. That meant that he was set aside for the first six weeks of his Gunners career when Flamini was available again.
It meant the Late Deal that chose January with which Arsenal chose to continue, which turned out to be sorry, because he was not a solution in the short term.
Kallstrom then only made three Premier League performances for Arsenal, because the signing was ultimately a great shame for the club. Wenger said he was considering pulling the plug to the transfer when hearing his back problem, but insisted that it was a case of needs.
Wenger said: “I am sure that if you have played football, you might have played with a micro -fracture from a vertebra without knowing that you had it. You don't even notice it.
'It came up with me [not to complete the deal]But I would not have signed it if we had had two or three days to do something. It was 5 pm on Friday evening, so it was signed for him or nobody. Spartak pays his wages during the first six weeks. We thought it would take four to six weeks.
“There is a possibility for every player they will not play, but there is also the chance that he will score a winning goal that is vital. We will only know if we are wrong or exactly at the end of the season.”
There are no such problems surrounding the English star -a statement signed for the Gunners, who offered North -London Rivals Tottenham to land the Eagles -midfielder. His arrival will cost the summer spending of Arsenal up to £ 260 million.
Fabrizio Romano reported on Saturday morning on X, after Friday of Eze, that all documents were signed for the player to become an arsenal man, which means that he has passed his tests. Former Arsenal Youth Eze will have liked to have learned that he is going on for the next chapter of his career, back in his boys' club.
When asked whether he is armed with the most complete team of his almost seven -year term, said head coach Mikel Arteta: “In terms of figures and quality, yes for sure. If you shake the tree and get more players, there are always things that can happen.
“The spirit of this is to be more competitive, to be better and to learn from the past, and with the team we had last year, we have made life very, very difficult for ourselves if you look at the size and depth of other squadrons and the resources they had.
“So we all have a big smile on our faces with the concept that we did very well, but the market is not closed and we have to stay very alert because there are still many things that can still happen. But so far, so good.”
