Latest Arsenal transfer rumours: Kluivert swap deal, £100m Aubameyang claim, Diaby interest

Despite the 2019/20 Premier League season not being completed yet, clubs are already planning for the next campaign.

Amongst those clubs are Arsenal, with manager Mikel Arteta preparing for his first summer transfer window in charge at the Emirates Stadium.

Arteta will no doubt be looking to bring in players who fit his philosophy, and able to take the Gunners to the next level.

With the upcoming window in mind, here are the best transfer rumours involving Arsenal today.

Gunners eye Kluivert swap deal

Arsenal could move for Roma attacker Justin Kluivert in a potential swap deal for Henrikh Mkhitaryan, according to Corriere dello Sport, via Team Talk.

Mkhitaryan has spent this season on loan in the Italian capital and has rediscovered some of his previous form with the club.

The Italian publication is reporting the Gunners could pay £13m plus the Armenian attacker in a bid for Kluivert.

The 19-year-old is the son of former Newcastle United star Patrick Kluivert, and signed for Roma from Ajax in the summer of 2018.

Aliadiere makes £100m Aubameyang claim

Former Arsenal forward Jeremie Aliadiere believes the Gunners could have picked up £100m if they had sold Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang at an earlier stage.

Aubameyang could enter the final year of his contract with the north London club should he stay, and Aliadiere believes if he was sold earlier, the Gunners would be in a much better position, financially.

“Arsenal are in the worst position you can imagine again because you’ve got a top quality player who assures you of 20-25 Premier League goals a season who is one year away from leaving on a free,” the ex-Arsenal man said to Goal.

“Or, he gets sold to Barcelona or Real Madrid and for what? How much can you expect for him now? Nothing compared to what if you’d sold him last summer.

"They could have asked for £100m.”

Leverkusen attacker eyed

Arsenal are interested in signing Bayer Leverkusen youngster Moussa Diaby, according to French outlet Le10 Sport.

Diaby has only been in Germany for a season after Leverkusen signed the young Frenchman from Paris Saint-Germain for €15m.

The 20-year-old was a key figure in Leverkusen’s comfortable 4-1 victory at Werder Bremen on Monday night and set up two goals during the game.

The French publication is reporting Arsenal will turn their attention to Diaby, with Tottenham Hotspur lead them in the race for Bournemouth winger Ryan Fraser.
