Silas Andersen, a midfielder for BK Hacken, has called Arsenal a significant club and said that he would be content if the Gunners were monitoring his development.
Due to reports that an Arsenal scout was scheduled to visit Hacken’s Conference League match against Strasbourg on Thursday in order to assess the player, Andersen has dominated headlines in both Sweden and Denmark this week.
The 21-year-old addressed transfer rumours during the game and clarified his future, despite the Swedish team’s 2-1 loss. When asked if he knew that Arsenal was interested, he said, “I don’t know.” I’ll let my agency handle it. I’m not very knowledgeable.
Andersen said, “It’s a big club,” when asked how he would feel if the reports were true. That would make me pleased. The former member of the Inter Milan youth team is reportedly being pursued by FC Copenhagen and Nottingham Forest.

According to football.london, Andersen is the most recent name being mentioned as a possible addition to the Gunners’ roster when the January transfer market opens. Arsenal may have been scouting the 21-year-old midfielder, according to recent speculations, but it’s still unclear if they want to make a deal in January.
Andersen has addressed the idea of joining Arsenal in reaction to the circulating speculations; however, he has been rather evasive on the subject. Andersen said, “I have no idea,” in response to a query concerning a potential January transfer. I need to discuss it with Erik (Friberg, Hacken sporting director) and Martin (Ericsson, Hacken football director).
With the addition of Zubimendi and Norgaard during the summer transfer window, Arsenal bolstered their midfield; however, it is unclear if they will pursue Andersen in the upcoming New Year.
