Arsenal Latest Transfer Rumours

BARCELONA SET BELLERIN DEADLINE Barcelona have set a deadline to agree a deal to bring Hector Bellerin back to the club from Arsenal, according to Mundo Deportivo . Bellerin is reportedly keen to return to Camp Nou, but Arsenal don’t want to sell the right-back. Barca have now decided that, if a deal isn’t sorted within the next 10 days, they will move on to other targets.

LIVERPOOL MAKE OX MOVE Liverpool have made an enquiry as to the availability of Arsenal midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, according to the Daily Mirror . The Anfield outfit have long been interested in the England international and are now looking to press forward and secure his signature. AC MILAN TARGET KOSCIELNY DEAL AC Milan have made Arsenal centre-half Laurent Koscielny a prime target as the Italian club look to strengthen their defence this summer, according to Telefoot . Koscielny has also been linked with the likes of Manchester City, Marseille and Chinese clubs this summer, but it is likely to take a big offer and persuasive argument to get Koscielny to leave Arsenal. GIROUD WANTS WENGER TALKS Olivier Giroud is set to hold talks with Arsene Wenger over his future at Arsenal as the club close in on the signing of Lyon striker Alexandre Lacazette, according to the Evening Standard . Giroud, who has also been linked with West Ham, has been tipped to be used as a makeweight in Arsenal’s bid for Lacazette and wants clarification from Wenger over his situation at the Emirates Stadium. MAHREZ GIVES UP ON BARCELONA Leicester City winger Riyad Mahrez has grown tired of waiting for Barcelona to make a firm offer and is now keen to join Arsenal in a €40 million (£35.1m) deal, according to Sport . Mahrez had been a back-up option for Barcelona this summer, but with the Algerian keen to resolve his future, he is keen to agree a four-year deal with Arsenal. ARSENAL CONSIDER ALEXIS-AGUERO SWAP Arsenal are considering a swap deal that would see them allowing Alexis Sanchez to join Manchester City in exchange for Sergio Aguero, according to the Daily Star . Alexis has long been linked with joining Pep Guardiola's side and it appears the Gunners could be open to a sale that would involve the Argentine heading in the opposite direction.
