Arsenal are tipped to sign a new midfielder before the end of the transfer window, with Aston Villa's Douglas Luiz heavily linked with Mikel Arteta's side.
With Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny both currently nursing injuries, Arsenal are left short of options in midfield. Youri Tielemans has been linked with the Gunners all summer, but Luiz is the latest name to be rumoured with a move to North London.
football.london understands that Luiz is a target for Arsenal, whilst Sky Sports have reported a 'mystery club' have bid £20m for the midfielder today. Luiz scored in Villa's 2-1 defeat against Arsenal on Wednesday night, and the 24-year-old's ability to play both as a defensive and box-to-box midfielder suits Arteta's profile well.
