Bayer Leverkusen defender Edmond Tapsoba is the latest player to be linked with a summer transfer to Arsenal.
Ajax star Lisandro Martinez had been mooted as the north London club's primary target for defence but the Argentine now looks set to reunite with Erik ten Hag at Manchester United instead. That leaves Arsenal looking for another player to help bolster their backline and according to transfersdotcom, that is Tapsoba.
The Gunners are said to have moved on quickly and are now preparing to make a move for the Burkina Faso international in this window, with Leverkusen said to value him at between €40 million- €50 million (£34 million - £44 million). But who is the 23-year-old and what would he bring to the Emirates Stadium if he signed?
