SANOGO IN THE BAG. WHO IS NEXT?

CLUB COMPLETES SIGNING OF YAYA SANOGO ON A FREE FROM AUXERRE.

Arsenal on monday the first day of the summer transfer window announced the signing of French U-20 international from Auxerre.
Sanogo (20), refused to renew his contract at Auxerre and shunned interest from former French Champions Lille in order to make his dream move to Arsenal and declared earlier in the summer that he will be joining Arsenal when the transfer window officially opens. Arsene Wenger also confessed that the deal was in advanced stage earlier before.

Sanogo nearly quit football at a tender age of 16 due to injuries but later a miracle (as he called it) happened and he got healed then put his career back on track.
He is currently playing for the French U-20 World Cup team in Turkey where he has managed to score 2 in 3 matches and helped his team progress to the knockout stage.
At Auxerre, (where we got Sagna and Diaby) he managed to score 11 goals in 24 appearance which mainly forced our scouting network in France led by former player Giles Grimandi to recommend him.

Here is what the manager said about him after his deal was confirmed on Arsenal.com:
“Sanogo is a good young signing for us.
“He has shown that he has potential with his recent performances for Auxerre and also for the France Under-20 side.
“We are looking forward to Yaya joining us and continuing his promising development.”

He is a good young signing who has shown potential so he for the future not now and obviously do not expect him to play a big role in ending our trophy drought and we should pray he doesn't get crocked due to his poor injury record to progress well with his development at the club.

The competition in today's football world makes it hard for young lads to break through with examples of: Giles Sunnu, Fran Merida, Luke Freeman, Aturo Lupoli, Jay Simpson and other due to lack of playing time to develop at big clubs like Arsenal because managers play their best teams as they yearn for silverware but lets hope he develops and become like Fabregas, Wilshere, Van Persie, Song, Walcott who managed to break through and be a vital member of the squad in 3 or 4 years.
