According to a recent report, Arsenal has made a €16 million (£14 million) offer to Manchester City for Kyle Walker while also showing interest in Julian Alvarez, Walker’s teammate.
What recent transfer news is there regarding Arsenal?
It was recently revealed that Mikel Arteta intends to play Jurrien Timber at right-back next season, so you might not have expected them to still be looking for a player in that position, but there have been rumours that they are still interested in Ivan Fresneda.
The Gunners are said to have contacted Real Valladolid about a deal for Fresneda, a player Arteta has always liked. Fresneda will now be offered for a discounted price as his release clause has been reduced to just €20 million (£17 million) as a result of his side’s relegation from La Liga.
Joao Cancelo is allegedly a target for Arsenal, according to journalist Ben Jacobs, who recently stated to GiveMeSport:
“We know that Arsenal would be interested in talking to Joao Cancelo if that were possible, and it will be fascinating to see if Manchester City are amenable to a deal. A year ago, Man City were happy to work with Arsenal because they didn’t really view them as a title contender.
According to a report from Nacional (via Football365), Arteta has made contact with Man City regarding a potential €16 million (£14 million) deal for Walker, suggesting that he may be looking to raid his former club for a number of new players.
The Gunners are also interested in Alvarez, though it may be difficult to arrange the transfer because Pep Guardiola is happy to have the Argentine and does not want to let him go.
Walker, on the other hand, only has one year left on his contract at the Etihad Stadium, so a deal for the England international would be a “easier case to solve.”
Does Kyle Walker intend to leave Manchester City?
Despite receiving a new contract offer on Saturday, it was reported that the Englishman is still unsure of his future. Thomas Tuchel, the manager of Bayern Munich, is reportedly working hard to sign the player this summer.
Given that the right-back previously played for Arsenal’s rivals Tottenham Hotspur, where he made 229 appearances before moving up north to join City, the rumour that Arsenal has made a move for him is undoubtedly eyebrow-raising.
There is no denying the defender’s talent, as demonstrated by the media’s praise for his “absolutely incredible” performance for England in the World Cup quarterfinal match against France, “eliminating the threat” of Kylian Mbappe.
The 33-year-old, who has five Premier League championships to his name, is now very accustomed to competing for major awards. He was instrumental last season, making 27 appearances in the top division.
Despite Walker’s talent, it would be foolish to approve a transfer if Arteta wants to develop a long-term project at the Emirates Stadium. Instead, the manager should look to sign younger players.
