Latest Arsenal transfer rumours: La Liga ace targeted as Liverpool join the race for midfielder

Arsenal’s 2019/20 Premier League campaign is on hold for the foreseeable future.

The coronavirus pandemic has put back any top flight football until April 30, at the earliest, having previously been suspended until April 3.

Mikel Arteta’s side have won their last three League games to close within eight points of the top four, with slim Champions League hopes still alive.

The most expensive Premier League transfers ever

Despite the end of the current campaign being up in air, attentions will soon turn to the close season and the transfer window.

Here are the latest Arsenal rumours…

Bilbao star linked with Arsenal transfer

Arsenal are reportedly keen on signing Athletic Bilbao defender Unai Nunez.

Reports in Spain, via elgoldigital, claim that Arteta is plotting several summer moves and plans to add Nunez to his side.

The centre-back, who has made 68 appearances for Bilbao, is also said to have attracted interest from West Ham United.

Arsenal would have to pay £25m to sign the 23-year-old, according to the report.

Liverpool join the race for Lyon midfielder

Premier League rivals Liverpool are reportedly interested in Houssem Aouar, who has been linked with the Gunners.

The Lyon midfielder has reportedly caught the eye of Arteta, having shone in Ligue 1.

Aouar, 21, broke into the side as a teenager and has closed up more than 120 appearances for Lyon, as well as being a regular for France’s under-21 side.

The Liverpool Echo claim that the youngster is a name that has been mentioned in terms of summer targets.

Tolisso latest

Bayern Munich midfielder Corentin Tolisso is reportedly available for a move away.

While at Lyon, Tolisso claimed that he wanted to join the Gunners when Arsene Wenger was in charge, but 12 months later he moved to Germany.

Now 25, Tolisso joined Bayern for £38m in the summer and while he scored 10 and grabbed seven assists in his first season, injuries have hampered his time there and reports claim he could now be on the move.
