MORNING, ARSENAL FANS
Brighton are making it tough for the Gunners to land main target Ben White – while Mikel Arteta is duelling Real Madrid for striker Alexander Isak.
That’s the pick of this morning’s transfer talk from around the Emirates, with Hector Bellerin, Martin Odegaard, Emile Smith Rowe and Folarin Balogun also in the spotlight.
It’s claimed Brighton are holding out for £50million PLUS add-ons for England centre-back White – following Arsenal’s improved bid of £42m.
Tottenham, Liverpool, PSG and Borussia Dortmund are also reportedly keen on the 23-year-old.
Meanwhile, Real Sociedad’s Sweden star Alexander Isak is being increasingly linked with the Emirates, despite speculation he could stay in Spain with Real Madrid
Juventus are said to be keen on a part-exchange involving Arsenal’s 19-year-old frontman Folarin Balogun and Gunners’ old boy Aaron Ramsey.
Full-back Bellerin is being monitored by Atletico Madrid, Villarreal and Inter Milan. Aston Villa are tipped to up an initial £25m offer for Arsenal midfielder Emile Smith Rowe.
Finally, Arsenal loan hit Martin Odegaard could be on his way out of Real Madrid after all.
