Media Kampung – 27 Maret 2026 | Mikel Arteta has placed French midfielder Enzo Le Fee at the top of Arsenal‘s summer transfer agenda.
The 26‑year‑old, currently with Sunderland, is praised for his technical skill and ability to circulate the ball.
Sunderland signed him permanently for €23 million after a loan spell, and he has contributed five goals and four assists in 33 appearances this season.
Arsenal see Le Fee as a remedy for a midfield that lacks depth, particularly as Martin Ødegaard’s form has waned.
His capacity to perform in multiple central roles aligns with Arteta’s preference for adaptable players.
Sunderland are expected to ask for more than twice their original investment, which could complicate negotiations.
Simultaneously, Arsenal face criticism for the limited use of 19‑year‑old left‑back Myles Lewis‑Skelly.
Former Arsenal striker Ian Wright publicly urged Arteta to bring Lewis‑Skelly back after his omission from the Carabao Cup final.
Wright recalled Lewis‑Skelly’s “unbelievable” display against Real Madrid last season, calling it a benchmark performance.
He argued that a ball‑playing left‑back could improve Arsenal’s build‑up when regular options are unavailable.
Arteta has frequently rotated between Riccardo Calafiori, Piero Hincapié and others, leaving the teenager as a third‑choice option.
Amid transfer speculation, Kai Havertz has voiced support for the club, while Ryanair mocked Arsenal’s celebration of Arteta’s birthday with a terse three‑word post.
The social‑media jibe highlights the intense scrutiny Arsenal endure while chasing league and European objectives.
With the transfer deadline looming, Arteta must balance midfield reinforcement, youth integration and fiscal prudence.
The next weeks will determine whether Arsenal can secure Le Fee, restore Lewis‑Skelly’s role and sustain momentum in a competitive Premier League campaign.
