Fabian Schar, 22 (FC Basel)
Fabian Schar is proving a quick developer at FC Basel, with the Swiss centre back progressing rapidly through the ranks and developing into a UEFA Champions League quality defender.
To illustrate that meteoric rise, just two years ago Schar was studying as a bank intern in case football didn’t work out.
However, he is now becoming accustomed to a place amongst the European elite, and given that Arsenal only have three senior centre backs in Per Mertesacker, Laurent Koscielny and Thomas Vermaelen, he could certainly prove useful.
Given the uncertainty over Bacary Sagna’s future too, Schar’s versatility at right back could also be required.
