Former Manchester United defender, Paul Parker, has berated manager, Mikel Arteta of Arsenal for allowing Mika Biereth leave the club.
Parker believes it was a crazy decision by the Spaniard as they are without a striker for the rest of the season.
Speaking to SpilXperten, Parker claimed that Biereth would have been the best option for the north London side right now based on his performances for AS Monaco this season.
According to him, that decision to sell the 22-year-old was the mistake of the decade.
Parker said, “I think it was a crazy decision by Arsenal to sell Mika Biereth, and they got almost no money for him.
“Of course, we don’t know how he would have developed if he had stayed instead of going to Sturm Graz, but based on how he is playing at Monaco right now, it seems like the mistake of the decade not to keep him.
“I’ve actually watched quite a few of Monaco’s games, and I’ve also seen all his goals. He is a really good finisher, and that is exactly what Arsenal is lacking.”
“Right now, they have a lot of injuries, but even with a fully fit squad, I believe Biereth would have been their best striker,” he added.
Biereth has netted ten times in seven Ligue 1 matches this season.
He has scored three hat-tricks in his last five league games and has been in red-hot form.
