Arsenal may have lacked a central midfield figure capable of grabbing goals for some time now, but that could all be about to change.
Having landed their top attacking target in Gabriel Jesus already this summer, the Gunners appear to have now turned their attentions to bolstering elsewhere within the current transfer window. While a move for versatile Ajax ace Lisandro Martinez may well be off the table as Manchester United continue to close in, there's hope acquisitions will arrive in other areas, namely midfield.
Promising Portuguese playmaker Fabio Vieira has already joined from Porto, but he alone is unlikely to be enough to see Mikel Arteta's side make the step up next season and close the gap to English football's Champions League contenders. A move for Leicester City's Youri Tielemans has been heavily touted in recent times, but an alternative - and perhaps more pressing - option has now emerged in Lyon's Lucas Paqueta.
