Arsenal Should Make the Deal on Reyes Good
Arsenal needs to do a number of things immediately after starting the season with humiliation and disgrace on getting beaten by Manchester City on Saturday.
One of the things they need sorted out quickly is the case of Reyes who repeatedly said he doesn’t want to remain in England anymore and would like to go back to Spain either with Real, Atletico or Seville.
As discussed, Arsenal will rely heavily on the rapid growth of their young players if they will come out on top of the standings when the season ends otherwise their end will come sooner than expected. They managed to squeeze their way to fourth place on the last day last of competition last season when their young players unexpectedly grew and matured faster than they expected.
Where does Reyes stand?
The future in the organization of both Reyes and Ashley Cole remain in the dark with possible movements to other clubs before the deadline expires. Reyes at the age of 22 is one of several players below 23 years old Arsenal is relying on for maturity and growth this year, and with Reyes’ clear statement that he doesn’t want to remain in England anymore, it seems they are one short of a future reliable player which is contagious given the youthfulness dominating Arsenal.
There is no way this kid is going to mature when his heart is no longer with England which translates to football club Arsenal. They have already rejected and offer with Atletico and may find themselves rejecting a few more only to keep Reyes.
Why should Reyes stay with the club?
Like Cesc Fabregas case, Arsenal is a very good place for Reyes to develop instead of transferring to Real Madrid where he could be spending more time on the bench counting his age. Spain is where the player wants to stay and doesn’t seem to have anything against Arsenal as a club other than the desire to leave England. I would believe that the best bet for Reyes’ career in on Arsenal’s camp.
How Arsenal plays this one out is interesting. Should they choose to deal Reyes, its best to get a mature and experienced player in exchange to blend with their young guys. If they choose to keep Reyes, they should go at great lengths to make sure the player is happy and is realizing his full potential.Arsenal is not looking any good right now and would need to start making important decision starting with Reyes.
