isMany feel Brentford deserved to play in the Premier League next season. The Bees have won over the hearts of many a neutral fan with their entertaining style of play.
However, the dramatic promotion final defeat to Fulham means they will have to spend at least one more year in the Championship, with some of their leaders probably looking to move away from Griffin Park.
Arsenal can use that to their advantage and try to raid the Bees for some honey. Tribuna.com singles out five Brentford players who could make it at the Emirates.
The 24-year-old scored 25 goals in 46 league games. He won the Football League Player of the Year award and confessed that he wants to join Arsenal. Earlier, he said Thierry Henry was his idol growing up.
The Englishman is capable of playing anywhere across the frontline and has attracted interest from bigger sides with his goalscoring rate.
Value: £10.8m (Transfermarkt)
A lot has been said and written about the Algerian creator who was in a red-hot form this season. The left winger boasts incredible numbers: 17 goals and 9 assists in 43 Championship games.
Arsenal are already linked with a move for the 24-year-old. However, they face competition from Chelsea and Leicester.
Benrahma is one of the most talented players on the market and, with his dream of playing in the Premier League not coming true at Brentford, perhaps the Gunners should make a move for the forward.
Value: £9.45m
The talented Englishman is one of the most used players this season, having made 42 Championship appearances. He scored 10 league goals and provided 4 assists from a relatively deep role in the midfield.
The Englishman is capable of playing as a left-back, a defensive midfielder and as a box-to-box man, and could potentially be trained to play as a wing-back in Arteta's 3-4-3 system.
Dasilva was released by Arsenal in 2018 but the Gunners have a chance of bringing him back before we see him turn into another Serge Gnabry or Ismael Bennacer.
Value: £2.45m
While the Englishman is obviously not a reincarnation of peak Fabio Cannavaro, he is quite reliable at the back. He is good in the air and could be an attacking threat during corners and is good at distributing the ball, launching sharp counters with his accurate passes.
At 27, Pinnock is in the best stage of his career. While certainly not a starter when the likes of William Saliba and Pablo Mari are available, Ethan could be a good option if we need someone to deputies for them.
Value: £2.16m
A cheaper and younger alternative to Willian. The right-winger scored 15 goals and provided 8 assists in 42 league games this season.
The 20-year-old possesses all attributes of a modern wide player: he likes to cut inside, has a powerful shot from both feet and knows how to beat an offside trap.
Mbeumo has been taught to press defenders high up on the pitch and could be a good fit for Arteta's side that likes to make it difficult for the opposition in their own half.
Value: £7.2m
