Arsenal are expected to sign a new central midfielder this summer as Mikel Arteta looks to strengthen his squad ahead of next season.
The Gunners narrowly missed out on a top-four spot last season but it is unlikely that this will affect their summer transfer plans. Arsenal have already confirmed the signing of Matt Turner and Marquinhos, whilst Alexandre Lacazette, Mateo Guendouzi and Konstantinos Mavropanos have all left the club on permanent deals.
According to reports, the Gunners are 'in contact' with Leicester City star Youri Tielemans' camp with the Belgian midfielder entering the final year of his contract. Both Arsenal and Tottenham have been linked with the 25-year-old, who has made more than 100 appearances for the Foxes since signing from Monaco on an initial loan deal in 2019.
