Arsenal will need to sign an extra midfielder to increase the depth in the middle of the park despite the acquisition of Fabio Vieira from FC Porto. Youri Tielemans was the Gunners’ initial target but a deal has now seemed to have collapsed.
Another midfielder the club had been linked with was Orkun Kokcu from Feyenood. According to Dutch outlet Ziggo Sport Voetbal, the Gunners are interested in signing the Turkish midfielder ahead of next season.
However, Edu must move fast if he is to complete a deal as transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has also reported that West Ham have registered interest in Kokcu. The Gunners will need to sign a Tielemans alternative, and Kokcu would certainly be a good option.
