Saliba replacement eyed
Arsenal want to keep William Saliba, but Media Foot in France, as cited by The Boot Room, have reported that the Gunners will listen to offers for the Frenchman. If they do end up selling him, Maxence Lacroix is being touted as a possible replacement for the 21-year-old.
Lacroix has spent the last two seasons at German side VfL Wolfsburg after completing his move from French side FC Sochaux-Montbéliard. He made 29 appearances last season in the Bundesliga.

Newcastle's Tielemans interest
Newcastle United sporting director Dan Ashworth has personally made enquiries about Arsenal target Youri Tielemans.
The Gunners have been one of the busiest clubs in the transfer window so far, and they are showing no signs of stopping yet. But they do now face competition for Tielemans' signature. Speaking on The Football Terrace, Ben Jacobs has said that the Magpies' interest is growing.
"If Arsenal put in an offer, Tielemans wants to go to Arsenal," he said. "If Arsenal don't put in an offer, that's when it gets interesting because Tielemans would still rather move for European football than stay at Leicester.
"He'd still rather move to a big club like Manchester United than have to extend at Leicester City. And he'd like his future resolved as early as possible in a World Cup year.
"Newcastle are growing in their interest. Dan Ashworth has made enquiries. But nothing, as yet, has materialised."

Kante move
Arsenal have been linked with a surprise move for Chelsea star N'Golo Kante this summer.
The Gunners could be set to take advantage of the Frenchman's current contract situation. As he has just one year left on his contract, and because he's been prone to injury over the last couple of years, Chelsea may be tempted to sell if they can get a reasonable fee.
