Arsenal fans will be hoping to round-off a busy summer transfer window with at least one more signing before deadline day comes to an end tonight.
The Gunners have already brought in several top-quality signings as the likes of Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko have joined their ranks. They’ve also added midfielder Fabio Vieira, goalkeeper Matt Turner and promising youngster Marquinhos to their squad.
Given the Gunners’ incredible start to the Premier League season, the mood around north London has been remarkable of late. However, injuries to both Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny means that they do look a little short in the middle of the park. They’ve also tried desperately hard to add a right-winger in this window, although it looks like an opportunity to sign one now looks out of reach.

With that all in mind, let’s take a look at the latest odds from bookies Betfair for those strongly linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium.
*All odds correct at the time of writing
Douglas Luiz (4/6 F)
Arsenal are the favourites to sign Douglas Luiz before the window slams shut. Aston Villa are closing in on a move for Wolves midfielder Leander Dendoncker, suggesting that they have lined-up a replacement for the Brazilian.
The Gunners have monitored the 24-year-old for some time and with one-year left on his current deal, Luiz is pushing for the transfer to happen.
Youri Tielemans (15/2)
Like Luiz, Tielemans has been linked with Arsenal for a long-time now. With just one-year left on his deal, it wouldn’t be surprising if he left Leicester before the deadline. However, despite making a formal bid earlier in the window, Arsenal have been clear about how much they’re willing to spend on the Belgian, who could well join the club next summer on a free transfer.
Elsewhere, Newcastle remain interested and are favourites to secure his signature (11/2).
Ruben Neves (16/1)
Another player Arteta admires is Neves. The Portuguese star has been a constant figure in Wolves’ midfield for several years now, but despite being linked with a move to both Arsenal and Manchester United for a long-while, it doesn’t look as though he’ll be leaving Molineux anytime soon.
