Here is the latest news coming out of the Emirates Stadium with Arsenal set to embark on a vital transfer window as they bid to win the Premier League title.

Andriy Lunin

With all the priorities that the Gunners have this summer, the signing of a new goalkeeper certainly seems low on that list of priorities, although Aaron Ramsdale could need replacing.

However, according to a report from Spanish outlet Cadena COPE, Arsenal are interested in Real Madrid goalkeeper Andriy Lunin.

This would certainly be a surprising signing for the Gunners with David Raya proving to be a very consistent performer in goal for the North London club.

Despite how well Lunin has played for Madrid this season, signing yet another goalkeeper when other areas of the squad need improvement would be a risk.

Victor Osimhen

The fallout from the Gunners missing out on their top striker target Benjamin Sesko continues with Mikel Arteta’s men moving onto different targets.

One of these targets is Napoli forward Victor Osimhen, if reports in Italy are to be believed.

CalcioNapoli.24 carry a report that Arsenal have made contact with the representatives of the £100 million rated Nigerian to attempt to start progressing a deal.

Osimhen would be an outstanding addition at the Emirates Stadium but it is unclear how much the Italian side would demand for the Nigerian.

Oleksandr Zinchenko

As well as incomings, outgoings will also be key for the North London club and the future of Ukrainian left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko is up in the air.

A report from TBR Football states that Zinchenko will be allowed to leave North London this summer if a suitable offer arrives.

Jakub Kiwior has been linked with a move to AC Milan but the Gunners want to keep the Polish defender and this could see Zinchenko on his way out of the Emirates.

Desire Doue

Arsenal have been linked with Rennes wonderkid Desire Doue but it is their London rivals who could steal a march on the Gunners.

A report from Le10 Sport details that Chelsea are pushing the hardest to sign the French winger and he could become a ‘hot topic’ in the coming weeks.

PSG and Arsenal are the other sides who have been mentioned in relation to the French winger but it is Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea who seemingly lead the race.
