Keep up with all the latest Arsenal transfer news, including updates on Nico Williams, Jakub Kiwior, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Kepa Arrizabalaga.
The summer transfer window is starting to kick into gear now, with Arsenal hard at work to try and strengthen the team.
Mikel Arteta will be hopeful that the recruitment department can add a striker and a winger, along with a goalkeeper and a midfielder, with deals for those areas progressing well.
The Gunners are also expecting to make some sales before the window closes, with plenty of exits being touted.
So, with that said, here’s a look at the latest Arsenal transfer news and rumours.
Arsenal’s feelings on Nico Williams transfer
David Ornstein claims that Nico Williams factors in highly for Arsenal in their thinking surrounding a new winger this summer.
The Gunners have shown interest in the Spaniard for some time, with his ability to unlock defences balanced with the potential that he could improve further.
Speaking on The Athletic podcast, Ornstein said: “Number nine is Arsenal’s first priority, but not far off that is this wide player.
“I would expect somebody to come in this summer. You would imagine nominally to the left, but it’s not impossible someone comes in who can play on both sides…
“I don’t think there is anyone much higher in their thinking than Nico Williams. We need to pay close attention to that situation.”
AC Milan want Jakub Kiwior and Oleksandr Zinchenko transfer
Arsenal pair Jakub Kiwior and Oleksandr Zinchenko are poised for potential exits this summer as teams circle for a switch.
Among those showing interest are Italian giants AC Milan, as Gazzetta dello Sport claim that they are monitoring the situation of both players.
Zinchenko has struggled for minutes this season, with several options currently ahead of him in the pecking order.
Meanwhile, for Kiwior, minutes have been a struggle, though he ended the season well in the first team.
Kepa Arrizabalaga agrees Arsenal move
Kepa Arrizabalaga has agreed a move to Arsenal as the transfer discussions are very advanced, claims David Ornstein on The Athletic podcast.
A £5 million release clause is in the Chelsea goalkeeper’s contract, which can be triggered this summer.
On the move, Ornstein said: “We believe Kepa Arrizabalaga has agreed to join Arsenal and they will have to pay the £5 million release clause.
“It’s not done yet, but it’s a situation that’s advanced & is being worked on. Kepa is prepared to fight for his place with Raya.”
