Arsenal has reportedly identified six players to sign for their manager, Mikel Arteta, in the upcoming summer transfer window.
The Gunners are eyeing two strikers, a midfielder, a left-sided centre-back, a winger, and a right-back this summer.
Evening Standard reports that the players Arsenal is eyeing this summer are Wolves’ Ruben Neves, Leicester City’s Youri Tielemans, and Aston Villa’s Douglas Luiz.
Others are Aston Villa’s Carney Chukwuemeka, Palmeiras’ Danilo and Middlesbrough’s Djed Spence
The Emirates club are also keeping an eye on Benfica’s Darwin Nunez.
However, to make room for new arrivals, Arsenal could sell some number of players as Dinos Mavropanos, Lucas Torreira, and Matteo Guendouzi, who are on loan at Stuttgart, Fiorentina, and Marseille respectively, are expected to make their transfers permanent.
Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Pablo Mari are also set to draw interest from Italian clubs and could leave Arsenal on loan.
