The potential ideal midfield signing for Arsenal could be disrupted by Real Madrid’s transfer hunt after losing out on Kylian Mbappe. Los Blancos have reportedly stepped up their pursuit for Aurelien Tchouameni, which could hurt the Gunners.
According to French journalist Fabrice Hawkins, AS Monaco wants Yves Bissouma to replace the outgoing Tchouameni. He goes on to claim that the Brighton midfielder has many offers, including a proposal from Aston Villa - though their deal to sign Boubacar Kamara from Marseille will likely end that pursuit.
The Gunners will need a midfielder in the summer transfer window. Arsenal have previously been linked with a deal for Bissouma, and acquiring him ahead of next season would certainly boost the strength of Mikel Arteta’s midfield.
