Arsenal have identified Raphinha as their main transfer target to strengthen the wing positions for Mikel Arteta ahead of next season. However, a deal is proving difficult to complete.
It is important that Edu searches for alternatives to prevent the Gunners from leaving the summer transfer window empty-handed in the wing positions. A useful alternative for the north London side would be Rafael Leao who could be available for a transfer.
The AC Milan winger has been heavily linked to Arsenal this season. With Edu already signing a Portugal star in Fabio Vieira during this summer transfer window, the Gunners’ technical director could sign another in Leao.
