Arsenal are ramping up their efforts to sign Leeds United star Raphinha as the Gunners look to further add to the club's Brazilian contingent.
The Gunners are on the verge of signing the Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus. Mikel Arteta was keen to reunite with the striker after the pair's shared time together at the Etihad when the Spaniard was an assistant to Pep Guardiola.
Arsenal's first acquisition of the summer came in the form of talented Brazilian teenager Marquinhos after prying the wonder-kid away from Sao Paulo. There are also, quite crucially, two members of the Selecao already plying their trade at the Emirates in Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Magalhaes.
