Arsenal have made their third signing of the summer and this time, it is a defender who has been added to their ranks. The new arrival is not one who will make the fans scream 'Yeeeeeeaaaah!' In fact, it will only make majority of them hiss.
The Gunners have reportedly signed English defender Rob Holding of Bolton Wanderers for a fee believed to be in the region of £2 million.
The signing of this 20-year-old who has only made 30 first team appearances for Bolton will make supporters wonder if their manager will ever change his approach to transfer activities. At a time when the club is desperately in need of a strong wall at the back, Arsene Wenger has successfully brought in a semi-experienced kid.
Holding has been with Bolton since the age of seven and he made his first team debut back in August in a Capital One Cup tie.
He is versatile as he can play both in full back and centre back. He was voted Player of the Year at Bolton at the end of last season.
Holding is a nice player at his level but he is not that kind who should be seen as a saviour in the first team. He is one for the future.
