The Gunners are looking at more players in this transfer window. It seems that Arsenal are not done yet. They want to spend more money and the owners are keen on backing Mikel Arteta to the fullest. With that being said, it seems that a number of players are still being watched.
The idea of losing Granit Xhaka and Thomas Partey has pushed Arteta and Edu to get more midfielders. And it seems that the duo has their sights set on a number of other stars. They are not done finishing for more talents.
So Which Players Is Arsenal Now Monitoring After Signing Declan Rice!?
Arsenal is not done yet. The North London giants intend to sign more stars in the current transfer window. For that, they are looking at a host of options to bring in. These are midfielders, that they want to add to their ranks.
It is well know that the club had an interest in Caicedo. If that deal does happen, then it would be perfect. However, if the move breaks down and he does move to Chelsea, then Arsenal have looked at more options.
It is being suggested that the club could spend as much as £400m in the current transfer window. Romeo Lavia is the current backup option to the Brighton man. In case, neither is signed, the Spanish boss has another alternative ready.
The Londoners mean serious business this time around. And they want to get the job done in the upcoming campaign, winning more titles. Plus, a Champions League return also means that the squad depth needs to be there. For that purpose, the Kroenkes are spending big this time.
Who Is The Third-Choice Midfield Signing That Would Cost Another €100m!?
If Arsenal can’t sign either of these two, they have another option. Mikel Arteta has a third-choice midfield option to get, if the deal for these two fails. It is none other than Real Madrid’s Aurelien Tchouameni. It seems that the Gunners will pursue the Frenchman, in case the current deals that they are trying to get done do not happen.
But, whether the player does leave the Bernabeu or not, could depend on various factors. One could be on the future fate of manager Carlo Ancelotti. Whether the Italian stays or leaves, could be a deciding factor for sure.
A lot of players may opt to move on, if they do not like a new boss. But if Ancelotti is staying, so would most of them. Even Dani Ceballos extended his contract with the club recently. So, the Italian does deem a lot of respect. And why would he not!?
Los Blancos themselves bought Tchouameni for about €100m. So, the sale would surely cost Arsenal more than that. He is just 23 at present and one of the best in the business already. So, getting him to move to the Emirates will surely not be easy!!
However, if Arsenal is serious about winning titles and achieving more, they will have to get such transfers over the line. It will be interesting to see how things develop in the days to come. And at the end of it all, which player eventually signs for the Gunners!!
