Djibril Sow Arsenal Granit Xhaka Frankfurt Switzerland Bundesliga Forest Nottingham Forest Bukayo Saka EPL

Arsenal have reportedly entered the race to sign Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder Djibril Sow. The Gunners are understood to be keen on bringing a new central midfielder to the Emirates Stadium amid concerns about the fitness of Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey.

Sow is a fresh name linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium as Mikel Arteta's side prepare to resume their first Premier League title fight since 2016. The Switzerland international has impressed with his performances in Bundesliga and joins teammates Jesper Lindstrom and Evan Ndicka in being tipped to move to the Emirates Stadium.

According to Sport BILD, the Gunners have joined Premier League rivals Nottingham Forest in the race to land the all-round midfielder. Sow is entering the final 18 months of his contract in Frankfurt and could be sold next month to ensure the Bundesliga side receive a reasonable transfer fee.
