Arsenal are likely to bolster their midfield department this summer and they have already been linked with multiple names in recent months.<\/p>

Real Sociedad\u2019s Martin Zubimendi<\/a> and Benfica\u2019s Joao Neves<\/a> have been mentioned as possible targets but Calciomercato.it<\/a> claim that Ismael Bennacer could be on their radar.<\/p>

\n

Bennacer is liked in the Premier League and \u2018especially at Arsenal\u2019 where he spent a couple of years. The outlet add that AC Milan are prepared to sell him for \u20ac50 million. <\/p>\n

The Rossoneri are also anticipating \u2018important\u2019 proposals from Saudi Arabia for the Algerian star.<\/p>\n

In our opinion, the Gunners must avoid the prospect of re-signing Bennacer amid his injury woes.<\/p>

Arsenal must avoid move for Bennacer amid injury woes<\/h3>\n

Bennacer has been one of the best holding midfielders in Serie A, but he has endured a difficult time over the past 18 months with multiple injury concerns at the Rossoneri.<\/p>\n

He missed seven games last term with a hamstring injury before suffering a serious knee issue in May last year. He was absent for 27 games for club and country as a result.<\/p>\n

Since his comeback, an adductor injury has kept him out for a few games. He is currently doubtful for the weekend, having withdrawn from international duty with a muscle strain.<\/p>\n

In our view, there is a big warning sign for the Gunners. The club have already had to endure a similar situation with Thomas Partey, who has had persistent injury troubles.<\/p>\n

Hence, it does not make sense to make an approach for another injury-plagued star. The Gunners should instead focus on Zubimendi, who is hugely admired by the manager<\/a>.<\/p>\n
