Arsenal are still on the hunt for a midfielder before the end of the summer transfer window despite already signing Fabio Vieira in June. Youri Tielemans seemed to be the main midfield target, but a deal has stalled.
Another player Arsenal had been heavily linked with leading up to the summer window was Fabian Ruiz, but a deal has yet to materialise so far. A big reason for this could be due to the interest also registered by Real Madrid.
Arsenal need to sign another midfielder before the end of the transfer window to solve the lack of quality in depth in the middle of the park. Ruiz certainly would have been a good option, but Madrid’s new intentions with the player would make a deal difficult.
