The transfer window is well and truly open and Arsenal have already made a transfer, but the Gunners are planning several more moves to strengthen their squad.
Unai Emery has a challenging rebuild ahead, with the departures of Danny Welbeck, Petr Cech, Aaron Ramsey and Stephan Lichtsteiner leaving the squad in need of reinforcements.
Arsenal completed the deal to bring Gabriel Martinelli this week, and are thought to be looking for a central defender, a midfielder and a winger this summer, so who will arrive at the Emirates in the next month? Here's a look at the latest Arsenal transfer rumours:
Mario Lemina
According to The Times, Manchester United have been given permission to speak to Mario Lemina.
football.london understands Arsenal are also interested in the Southampton midfielder, but Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side have made the first concrete move to sign the Gabon international.
In 2017, Southampton actually beat off competition from the north Londoners when they signed Lemina from Juventus for £18million.
The midfielder received glowing reports from Arsenal scouts, but Arsene Wenger was not entirely convinced leaving the Saints with a free run at the player.
Malcom
According to RMC, Everton will make an offer in excess of €35million for Barcelona winger Malcom.
Toffees boss Marco Silva has reportedly made the former Bordeaux player his priority this summer, but Arsenal are still thought to be in the running.
The Gunners are in discussions with the player’s entourage but have yet to make an offer.
William Saliba
Arsenal are close to completing a deal for Saint Etienne defender Wiliam Saliba.
A 30 million euro fee (£26.9m) is reportedly agreed with the finer details to be ironed out.
Saliba is set to travel to London to complete a medical and sign a long-term deal ahead of returning to the Ligue 1 side on loan for next season.
Lucas Vazquez
According to Onda Cero, Lucas Vazquez may be leaving Real Madrid this summer, but he won’t be joining Arsenal.
Despite reports of talks, the Gunners reportedly have no interest in the winger and are focusing on Wilfried Zaha, Malcom and Ryan Fraser.
Alexis Sanchez
Speaking to Goal, former Arsenal transfer negotiator Dick Law says Alexis Sanchez had agreed to a new contract at the Gunners but the forward performed a last minute U-turn.
In the end, the Chilean left the Emirates just six months of his contract remaining, joining Manchester United in January 2018 in a swap deal that saw Henrikh Mkhitaryan move in the opposite direction.
