Arsenal are facing competition from Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester United in the race to sign RB Salzburg talent Oscar Gloukh. The Gunners are in the market for a versatile attacker as Mikel Arteta looks to bolster his squad ahead of a return to the Champions League next season.
Kai Havertz became the first signing of the summer at the Emirates Stadium after completing a £65million switch from Chelsea. Declan Rice remains Arsenal's priority this summer and the 24-year-old is expected to complete a £105million move to north London by the end of this week.
Rice is excited to work under Arteta and snubbed interest from Manchester City - who had a £90million rejected by West Ham - to seal a move to the Emirates Stadium as a priority. Jurrien Timber is also expected to complete a £40million transfer from Ajax to the Gunners in the coming days as Arteta looks to reinforce the spine of his squad heading into the 2023/24 campaign.
Gloukh has emerged as a target for Arsenal who are looking to sign a young, versatile forward this summer. The 19-year-old is currently away on international duty for Israel Under-21s at the European Championships.
Israel take on England Under-21s in the semi-finals on Wednesday night. Arsenal, City, United and Spurs are among a large contingent of clubs who have shown an interest in the 19-year-old, according to The Guardian.

Gloukh joined Red Bull Salzburg in January for just €7million (£6m). Salzburg's sister club, RB Leipzig, would also like to bring the young Israeli to the Bundesliga in future. Although it is understood Gloukh would prefer to join a club in England or Spain.
Gloukh's contract at Salzburg is not set to expire until 2027 meaning it could take a huge fee to secure his signature this summer. The youngster scored eight goals and provided a further 10 assists in 40 appearances across all competitions last term.
