Amid financial troubles for Michael Essien, his wife Akosua Puni's resilience and multifaceted career continue to draw public attention.
1. Perfect complement to Bukayo Saka
Williams’ style of play would ideally complement Arsenal’s current star winger, Bukayo Saka.
While Saka dazzles with his skill and agility, Williams brings in raw power and pace from the left flank, offering Arsenal a dual threat that could terrorize defenses in the Premier League and beyond.
His ability to stretch defenses would open up more space for Saka to operate, potentially elevating both players' games.
2. Arsenal's need for width
Arsenal has shown a tendency to become somewhat predictable in attack, often relying heavily on intricate plays through the middle.

This tactical variation could be crucial in breaking down stubborn defenses, especially in tightly contested matches.
3. Proven big game temperament

With a transfer fee estimated around €50-60 million, Williams fits into the financial framework Arsenal has set for marquee signings under Arteta's tenure.
