Arsenal have been linked with players mainly in the midfield and striking roles this January with Mikel Arteta wanting to add quality to his squad as the club pushes for a top-four finish this season.
However, whilst Arsenal do have needs in both areas a new link has surfaced for a different role. The Mirror reports that Arteta's side are interested in signing Middlesbrough right-back, Djed Spence. The name may stick in the mind as this is the very player currently on loan at Nottingham Forest who pocketed Gabriel Martinelli and gave the Brazilian a torrid afternoon.
The reported fee for Spence would be in the £10 million range and despite an injury to Cedric Soares against Liverpool, the move would only benefit the Gunners from this coming summer with the full-back having already played for two clubs this season.
