It just wouldn't be an Arsenal summer transfer window without Mikel Arteta eyeing defensive reinforcements amid fresh links to Ajax star Lisandro Martinez.
In his two summer windows as Gunners manager, the Spaniard has overseen the arrivals of Pablo Mari, Cedric Soares, Gabriel Magalhaes, Benjamin White, Nuno Tavares and Takehiro Tomiyasu at the Emirates Stadium, and reports suggest he wants to add another name to the list.
As per, The Athletic, Arsenal - who have already signed Marquinhos from Sao Paulo and are closing in on deals for Matt Turner and Fabio Vieira - have decided their next summer transfer priority is to sign Martinez due to the 24-year-old's ability to play at centre-back and left back.
