Arsenal are obviously working hard on strengthening their ranks for the upcoming season. They’ve managed to convince Eddie Nketiah to sign a new contract and stay put, thus ensuring that the striker department isn’t left completely bare, and they’ve apparently completed the signing of midfielder Fabio Vieira from FC Porto, though we’re still waiting for the Gunners to confirm that as the Portuguese club already have.
According to Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal are now working on a deal to sign Lisandro Martinez from Ajax. Primarily a centre-back, the 24-year-old Argentinian can play as a fullback on either side as well, and as a defensive midfielder is tasked with that role. .......Read more here.....

Arsenal are set to step up their interest in Andre Onana and are preparing to enter negotiations with Ajax after the goalkeeper saw his doping ban reduced to nine months by the Court of Arbitration for Sports, according to Charles Watts of Goal.com. Onana will now be able to return to action in November, which means he wouldn’t miss too many matches at the start of the season.
There is still much uncertainty over the future of Bernd Leno. The German is reportedly keen on leaving the Emirates this summer and the club aren’t opposed to the idea, providing a suitable offer for his services arrives. That would, of course, mean the Gunners would need another No.1 for the near future. .......Read more here.....

Arsenal are reportedly one of the clubs closely monitoring developments surrounding the future of Hakim Ziyech.
The Ajax winger, also very capable of playing centrally as a No. 10, scored 21 goals and laid on 24 assists in all competitions this season, and was a key member of the team that not only produced a fabulous run to the Champions League semifinal, but also won the domestic league/cup double in Netherlands.
Naturally, such performances are always likely to attract interest from top European clubs. The likes of Liverpool, Manchester United and Bayern Munich have all been credited with strong interest in the 26-year-old, but there is apparently a reason why Arsenal may have an edge over any of these suitors. .......Read more here.....

According to a report in the Mirror, Arsenal are interested in securing the signature of Ajax teenage defender Matthijs De Ligt.
With Per Mertesacker’s retirement imminent, and the fact that Laurent Koscielny is turning 33 later this year, the club are well in the process of rejuvenating the team’s back line. Shkodran Mustafi is an at excellent player, and at the age of 25, he’s about to enter his prime as a defender. Calum Chambers has hardly cemented a spot in the starting XI, but considering the time he’s been around, it’s very easy to forget he’s still only 23. Rob Holding turns 23 in September, while the Gunners’ first signing of the year, Konstantinos Mavropanos, is 20. .......Read more here.....
