MLS star Facundo Torres has confirmed that Arsenal have held talks with Orlando City over a potential transfer.
Reports emerged in October last year which claimed the Gunners were targeting a move for the 22-year-old and had planned a meeting with his representatives to see if a deal could be struck. Speaking exclusively to 90min this week, Torres confirmed the stories were true and revealed what the latest is in regards to a possible move.
“Orlando City confirmed to me that there was contact with Arsenal, but then I left for the World Cup and I didn’t want to hear about a potential transfer at that point,” he said. “So the conversation stayed there but now that I am back with the team, we will see where the conversation goes,” Torres added.
