Man City: Pep Guardiola discusses John Stones' future
Arsenal icon Ray Parlour wants to see Mikel Arteta try and sign John Stones from Manchester City after completing a deal for Willian. Arsenal were the frontrunners to sign Willian on a free after he left Chelsea this summer and a deal was confirmed on Friday.
Willian joins on a three-year deal on a contract worth a reported £220,000-a-week.
The 32-year-old comes in and will provide strong competition for places in the forward positions having spent seven years at Chelsea where he won two Premier League titles.
But there have been some calls for Arteta to go into the transfer market to help shore up his defence.
William Saliba will be a new face at the Emirates as he joins Arsenal for the first time since a deal was agreed last summer.
"The centre-half position has been a problem for a lot of clubs," he said on talkSPORT.
"I'd love to see him at Arsenal.
"Whether they can get enough money up front to buy him is another matter.
"But he's at that age now where he needs to start playing.
