Former Arsenal midfielder Denis Suarez has admitted he knows that Gunners target Gabri Veiga wants to stay at Celta Vigo this summer. The stunning creative midfielder is expected to depart the Spanish club with numerous European heavyweights all after his signature following his first full season in La Liga where he scored 11 goals and grabbed four assists.
Real Madrid and Barcelona were the first clubs to show a keen interest but their focus appears elsewhere, with Los Blancos also now unlikely to make any more signings. In the Premier League, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester City have all been linked with a move for the 21-year-old.
The Gunners' focus in the market is currently elsewhere with moves for Declan Rice and Jurrien Timber to be finalised in the coming week. Out of the English teams showing interest, Chelsea and Man City appear in the lead to sign Veiga with his €40million (£34.4m) release clause almost guaranteed to be activated this summer.
