Arsenal could use Lucca Marques<\/h2>\n

They could use more quality and depth in the attacking unit, and the 18-year-old could be a handy option for them in the final third. Although he is a left-sided winger, he is versatile enough to slot into either flank. He will add close control, pace, and unpredictability to the team.<\/p>\n

Arsenal have invested in players like Eberechi Eze and Noni Madueke at the start of the season. However, both players have been underwhelming. Arsenal needs more cutting-edge in the wide area,s and investing in the talented young Brazilian could be a wise decision.<\/p>\n

Marques would be a future asset<\/h2>\n

He might not be ready for the Premier League just yet, but he is a talented player with a bright future, and he could be groomed into an important first-team player for the club. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal can negotiate a reasonable deal to sign the player.<\/p>\n

Convincing the attacker to join the club will not be difficult. They are among the biggest clubs in the world, and they have an ambitious project. The 18-year-old will be attracted to the idea of joining them.<\/p>\n

Regular football in the Premier League could be ideal for his development and accelerate his growth. Arsenal have a rich history of nurturing young players, and they could help him fulfil his potential.<\/p>\n
