Mikel Arteta could achieve what Unai Emery couldn't at Arsenal by signing Christopher Nkunku. The club have been linked to the Frenchman but will need to be savvy to secure his services.
The Athletic's David Ornstein has reported that the Frenchman is set to sign a pre-contract with Chelsea. This has been followed up by transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, who has reported that Todd Boehly is trying to negotiate a fee before exploring the option of activating Nkunku's £56million release clause.
This gives Arsenal an opportunity to swoop in with their own offer. The Gunners had previously lost out on an RB Leipzig target after Liverpool made a premature offer to then sign the player a season later, and it seems they are trying to follow suit with Nkunku, which Edu should attempt to prevent.
