Luis Sinisterra, who had his first title with the Colombian senior team in the last two days of qualifying, is in the sights of Arsenal, who wants to count on him once the 2021/22 season ends.
Due to his waist break, speed through the bands and his scoring ability, a 22-year-old footballer is in the sights of some great clubs from the old continent. Prior to the qualifying days, during a Feyenoord engagement he was scanned by two envoys from FC Barcelona and Atlético de Madrid, although no official approaches are known. And on December 31, The Sun reported that the squad led by Mikel Arteta wants to count on him.
“Securing Sinisterra would give Arteta another quality attack option. Deployed exclusively on the left wing, he would compete with Gabriel Martinelli and Emile Smith Rowe for a spot on the team,” the British newspaper published.
For The Sun, two factors that may make it possible for the man from Santander de Quilichao (Cauca) to arrive at the Gunners is that this year he started speaking English and that one of his former colleagues at Feyenoord, Reiss Nelson, could give him a push to convince him.
He confirmed Arsenal's interest in Sinisterra Corriere dello Sport: apparently there was already a direct conversation with those who represent the coffee grower, who this season has 18 goals and 11 assists in the campaign, some of them for the Uefa Conference League.
It is worth remembering that the far left is the seventh best rated Colombian by the transfer portal Transfermarkt (18 million euros), second only to Wilmar Barrios, Yerry Mina, Luis Fernando Muriel, Duván Zapata, Dávinson Sánchez and Luis Díaz, hence, those who want to count on their services should have a figure close to this category in their pockets.
One of those who spoke about the possibility of the talented left winger leaving the Eredivisie to reach LaLiga Santander was sports journalist Hernán Peláez, a week ago, through his Twitter account, where he posted: “Luis Sinisterra will surely go to Betis, he has done all the merits to reach the Spanish league”.
Betis, under the baton of Chilean Manuel Pellegrini, would not be a bad option for the coffee jewel, considering that today they are fifth in the Spanish league, that is, they are taking a direct quota to the group stage of the Europa League, and even has the option of qualifying for the Champions League, the greater prestige at the continental level.
But Betis is not the only option he has to change his destination once the summer transfer market opens. Transfermarkt confirmed that there is interest from AC Milan, one of the greats in Europe and leader of Serie A. For his part, journalist Nicolò Schira, who specializes in football transfers, added that Naples and Sassuolo would also compete for the Colombian. Your fate, to a large extent, will be determined how you close your campaign.
