Arsenal have finally seemed to make a breakthrough in their pursuit for Leeds United winger Raphinha. The Gunners can also take encouragement from Chelsea’s recent transfer activity.
Earlier last week, The Athletic’s David Ornstein had reported that Arsenal had a bid rejected by Leeds United. The player also did not not view the Gunners as a preferred move with Chelsea and Barcelona both linked to the winger.
However, it seems that Chelsea have turned their attentions fully towards Raheem Sterling, who plays in the same position as Raphinha on the right-hand side. With Chelsea being removed as a competitor, it gives the needed reassurance for Edu to complete a deal for the Brazilian.
