Does Arsenal really need a center back?

Chris Smalling and Simon Kjaer have been linked with a move to Arsenal. With Arsene Wenger signing  a new two year deal to stay at Arsenal the Frenchman is in the transfer market to bolster his squad for the 2017/18 Premier League season. However with the current Arsenal squad, where are these two defenders going to fit in if the news are true? The central defense position in the Gunners squad seemed to be too heavy and occupied for any addition. With players like Rob Holding who has been in a scintillating form, Laurent Koscielny, Mustafi,  Gabriel, Per Mertsacker.

If this kind of deal is going to pull through Arsene Wenger is going to be in a selection dilemma and not only that he will be in trouble with the fans. Arsenal fans are not looking forward for the gaffer to strengthen in that position. With news linking Arsenal with Lyon striker Alexander Lacazette Arsenal fans are gazing closely to many media reports linking to the deal of lacazette. With Lyon President  Aulas being reported that he  was in London to finalise Lacazette deal it look like things are happening now at Arsenal and the fans are going to be buoyed with this development and hopefully Arsene Wenger and Ivan Gazidi will pull the deal through.
