Arsenal have reportedly identified Sergej Milinkovic-Savic as their next transfer target following the announcement of Gabriel Jesus' £45million move from Manchester City.

Chelsea have also been linked with a move for the Lazio midfielder, but Arsenal have now entered the race for Milinkovic-Savic according to reports in Italy. Lazio have reportedly slapped a price tag on the player of in the region of £50million according to Corriere Dello Sport, with the same outlet reporting that the Blues were now one of the clubs with an interest in the 27-year-old.

Following the completion of Jesus' move from City to the Emirates, Arsenal are now looking to strengthen elsewhere in the squad and are currently pushing for Ajax defender Lisandro Martinez, along with Manchester United. The Gunners are in the market for a new midfielder with Leicester's Youri Tielemans being heavily linked with a move to north London, but now it seems that Milinkovic-Savic is the top midfield target for Arsenal.
