#1 Jean Michael Seri (Nice)

Strasbourg v OGC Nice - Ligue 1
Seri has been playing for Nice since 2015

Arsenal has reportedly held talks with the player's agent over the week with regards to a possible move to the club this summer. Besides the Gunners, Chelsea and Liverpool are both said to be interested in the player too. Based on the cumulative statistics from Transfermarkt, 26-year-old has played 42 games all season, scoring two goals and providing 10 assists for his team.

From his style of play, Seri can become a creator from the deep. Playing him alongside Granit Xhaka will probably be one of the best options if he does join the Gunners. Similar to Xhaka, Seri is extremely good in passing the ball around and playing long balls forward.

Ever since Santi Cazorla got injured, Arsenal lacks a midfielder who is capable of dictating the play from deep. Seri could be the replacement that Arsenal is searching for.

The Ivory Coast midfielder has a release clause of 35 million pounds which Arsenal is capable of meeting with ease. He may not be the best player who can stop the play of his opponents, but he is certainly capable of having a huge presence in the midfield.
