Arsenal took a setback in the summer transfer market after being snubbed by Raphinha following a very successful start to the window. Mikel Arteta has been on the hunt for a winger and it seemed that the Brazilian would have been the perfect acquisition.
However, the former Leeds United winger decided to join Barcelona meaning it is important that Edu searches for alternatives, as Arsenal cannot be left weak in the attacking positions. It seems that Edu has potentially identified Marco Asensio as a potential option.
And the Gunners have been given a boost to sign the Spain international. Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano said via Wettfreunde : "Asensio has been offered by his agent to many important English clubs including Arsenal, Man United in the last two weeks."
