Arsenal could well lose back up right-back, Mathieu Debuchy in the summer. The Frenchman lost his place to Hector Bellerin following a long-term injury, and has never recovered his spot.
At 30-years-old (31 this summer), game time is essential for Debuchy, hence why he spent this season on loan at Bordeaux. A rumoured potential replacement for the fullback, is Wolves youngster, Dominic Iorfa.
The England under-21 international has had an excellent season for Wolves, leading to him being linked to many clubs, but as his manager, Kenny Jackett, told the BBC, nothing concrete has come in.
There’s been enough speculation but we’ve had no bids or inquiries from clubs, which is good. That’s not to say that we won’t. We can only react when that happens.
As a general principle, we want to work hard to keep our best players, if that is possible. We have one or two promising players here, which is a plus for us. But we would prefer to keep our best players and build around them.
Iorfa is a physically imposing fullback who can also play as a central midfielder. The fullback progressed through the academy at Wolves, and since making his debut last season, has become one the better players at the Midlands club. At only 20, Iorfa has made an impressive amount of appearances for Wolves, and due to that experience, he could yet be ready for a move to the Premier League.
