Catch all the latest Arsenal transfer rumours, including updates on Eberechi Eze, Viktor Gyokeres and Matheus Cunha.

The summer transfer window is only a few weeks away now, and Arsenal are gearing up for one of their biggest yet.

Sporting director Andrea Berta will have a chance at making his first real impact on the squad with a few signings expected.

Potential transfer exits could also follow, with the Gunners expected to wave farewell to some of those who have been key to the journey so far.

So with that said, here’s a look at the latest Arsenal transfer news and rumours ahead of another busy day.

Arsenal showing interest in Eberechi Eze transfer switch

Arsenal are showing interest in a possible deal to sign Eberechi Eze in the upcoming summer transfer window.

That’s according to GiveMeSport, which claims that the Gunners are “tempted” by the possibility of landing the England international.

Eze, formerly of Arsenal’s academy, before he was released, has a release clause in his Crystal Palace contract worth roughly £68million.

If triggered, the north London club could skip club-to-club negotiations to land themselves contract discussions with the player.

Eze could provide quality and depth as a left-sided attacker as well as a playmaker in the Arsenal side.

Manchester United step up Viktor Gyokeres chase

Arsenal’s move for Viktor Gyokeres could be under threat due to the interest of Manchester United this summer.

That’s because, according to L’Equipe, the Red Devils are set to accelerate their attempts to sign the Swedish international.

United are claimed to be waiting for the outcome of their Europa League final clash with Tottenham before they make a move.

Should they win, the side will qualify for the Champions League, which could give them a huge boost in terms of landing Gyokeres.

Manchester United set to beat Arsenal to Matheus Cunha transfer

Arsenal look set to lose out on their transfer chase for Wolves forward Matheus Cunha ahead of the summer transfer window.

That’s because, according to Fabrizio Romano, rivals Manchester United are ready to trigger the release clause for the Brazilian.

An agreement is claimed to be close on personal terms and the overall contract, which will allow the £62.5million release clause to be triggered.

There is still a chance for Arsenal to trigger the same deal and complete a move on personal terms, but that appears unlikely as Man United close in.
