When it was announced back in early June that Arsenal were set to sign left-back Sead Kolasinac from Schalke on a free transfer, there weren’t too many Gunners fans that even batted an eyelid at the signing. The 23-year-old was unheard of outside of Germany and as such was a bit of an unknown entity
