Arsenal are looking at Romeo Lavia as a potential midfield recruitment this summer. The Belgian international impressed with Southampton last season and a buy-back clause in his contract that Man City can activate in 2024 has sparked some early interest.
With Declan Rice the priority for Arsenal, Lavia acts as further reinforcement to the team. Mikel Arteta wants his side to be better prepared for the return to Champions League action this season.
At just 19 years of age, Lavia remains something of a prospect, but his regular featuring in the Southampton team last season has provided plenty of evidence why sides like Arsenal would be interested. His performance at the Emirates in the 3-3 draw late in the season displayed his ability against a top side like the Gunners.
