Real Madrid star Aurelien Tchouameni is the latest player to be linked with a summer transfer to Arsenal.
The Gunners have overhauled their midfield in recent times, allowing Granit Xhaka to depart for Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen whilst Thomas Partey would also be allowed to leave if a suitable offer were to come in, football.london understands. One midfielder set to arrive at the Emirates Stadium is West Ham United captain Declan Rice, who will join Mikel Arteta's side for a club-record £105million.
But if Partey's exit is sanctioned, Arteta will likely need another defensive-minded midfielder on top of Rice. Tchouameni has been mooted as a possible name on the Spaniard's shortlist, although a deal is unlikely to come cheap given he joined Real for a fee in the region of £85.3million last summer.
