Arsenal missed their primary winger transfer target as they watched Raphinha make a big-money move to Barcelona. There had been hope that the Catalan side’s financial worries would open the door for the Gunners to steal away the Brazilian, but the Blaugrana look hardly like a team suffering from a lack of funds this summer and got their man.
Since Arsenal have yet to pursue a potential alternative with Lisandro Martinez and now Oleksandr Zinchenko taking the priority focus for technical director Edu. The Ukrainian is now closing on a move to north London to reunite with his former City coach Mikel Arteta.
However, Fabrizio Romano reported that Arsenal would then turn their attention to a wide player again in the coming days. The identity of the wide player remains somewhat a mystery although according to Bild via The Sun, the Gunners have an interest in Bayern Munich’s Leroy Sane.
