Arsenal have been given a wakeup call in the race to sign Gabri Veiga following Carlo Ancelotti's glowing review of the 20-year-old. The midfielder has been heavily linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium lately as he continues to impress for Celta Vigo.
Veiga, who sees his contract at the Estadio Municipal de Balaidos expire in 2026, has featured 28 times for Carlos Carvalhal's side in La Liga this season, directly contributing towards 13 goals. The Spain youth international's impressive performances have rightfully attracted the attention of some top clubs and, with Mikel Arteta eager to further bolster his options in the centre of the park, he's emerged as a target.
According to Spanish radio network Cadena SER, the Gunners are joined by Liverpool in the race to sign Veiga, while Newcastle and Real Madrid are keeping tabs on his situation. With plenty of interest in the Spaniard, the Celta Vigo president has conceded that the youngster will probably leave this summer.
