Arsenal are set to try again to sign Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo in the summer transfer window having failed in their attempts in January to land the Brazilian.
The 25-year-old looked likely to complete a loan move to north London and reports even suggested he was keen to sign having fallen out of favour under Massimiliano Allegri in Turin. But with Juventus unable to source a replacement for the player in time, he remained with the Serie A giants beyond the deadline.
But with football.london understanding that Roma will come in for Granit Xhaka again at the end of the season, Mikel Arteta is eager to bolster his midfield. Youri Tielemans has been touted as a potential option for the Gunners but with Manchester United and Liverpool both also interested, the north Londoners may struggle.
