Arsenal is an exciting project, but there\u2019s one condition that has to be fulfilled for me to say yes.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.77ne.com\/storage\/062025\/dcbca8e204c04f4d9a7bd1701298c7f0.jpeg\" alt=\"\u201cI had a conversation with Andrea Berta following the Champions League game\u2026\u201d \u2014 South American star opens up about his readiness to join Arsenal on one condition after recent speculation. The player sees Arsenal as the perfect destination but insists he\u2019ll only make the move if Mikel Arteta can promise him one key thing.\" width=\"780\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1276\" data-start=\"1002\">According to sources close to the player, the condition is linked to his role under Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta. The star wants guarantees of regular playing time in his preferred position \u2014 as a central playmaker \u2014 and a defined role in the Spanish coach\u2019s tactical setup.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1495\" data-start=\"1278\"><em data-end=\"1392\" data-start=\"1278\">\u201cI respect Arteta a lot. What he\u2019s done at Arsenal is admirable, and I see the club as a perfect place to grow,\u201d<\/em> he added. <em data-end=\"1495\" data-start=\"1403\">\u201cBut I need to feel like I\u2019m coming in as an important piece, not just a rotation option.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p data-end=\"1804\" data-start=\"1497\">Arsenal, who are reportedly looking to reinforce their midfield ahead of the 2025\/26 season, have been monitoring the player for over a year. His performances in both domestic and European competitions have drawn attention from top clubs in England and Italy, but the Gunners appear to be the front-runners.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"2105\" data-start=\"1806\">Club insiders suggest that Arteta is open to the move and values the player\u2019s creativity and versatility. However, with a squad already boasting names like Martin \u00d8degaard, Declan Rice, and Emile Smith Rowe, accommodating another attacking midfielder may require tactical adjustments \u2014 or outgoings.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"2297\" data-start=\"2107\">Negotiations are expected to continue over the coming weeks, with Arsenal hoping to secure personal terms and reach an agreement with the player\u2019s current club before the start of preseason.<\/p>\n<p data-end=\"2564\" data-start=\"2299\">If the deal goes through, it would represent another major statement of intent from Arsenal, who continue their pursuit of trophies under Arteta\u2019s ambitious project. For now, all eyes are on North London \u2014 and on one condition that could make or break the transfer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>London, June 3, 2025 \u2014 Transfer speculation surrounding Arsenal continues to grow as one of South America\u2019s brightest stars has finally broken his silence, confirming that he is open to joining the North London club \u2014 but only if a\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":67078,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67077","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>\u201cI had a conversation with Andrea Berta following the Champions League game\u2026\u201d \u2014 South American star opens up about his readiness to join Arsenal on one condition after recent speculation.
