Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke has given the green light for Arsenal to pursue a £60million deal for Bayer Leverkusen star Moussa Diaby.
The Gunners started their Premier League season with an impressive win away at Selhurst Park against Crystal Palace, with new signing Oleksandr Zinchenko playing a key role in the opening goal. Zinchenko became Arsenal's fifth summer signing last month, joining Gabriel Jesus, Fabio Vieira, Matt Turner and Marquinhos in moving to the Emirates Stadium.
Manager Mikel Arteta has made it no secret that he wants to add more players to his squad before the transfer deadline, with a central midfielder and winger thought to be on the agenda for technical director Edu. football.london understands Arsenal are interested in Dutch talent Cody Gakpo, but Kroenke is said to have approved a move for Diaby instead.
