Alexis Sanchez’s Chilean teammate, Aranguiz is one of the most talented midfielders in the Brazilian league. He pulls the strings for the national side, and is the creative force that supplies our star man.
The 26-year-old also scored twice in Chile’s recent 5-0 win over Bolivia, proving that he can score goals from midfield as well.
He has been linked with a bargain £5m move to the Emirates this summer, with the midfielder claiming it would be a ‘dream move’ (via the Daily Mail).
A creative midfielder is not exactly what we need at the moment, but Aranguiz has the versatility to play in central midfield, defensive midfield, and even as a right-winger.
