Latest Arsenal transfer rumours: Unai Emery ready to rival Tottenham for Dutch midfield star

There are two-and-a-half months until the 2019 summer window opens, and there is sure to be plenty of transfer action across Europe.

Arsenal are sure to be busy, with Aaron Ramsey's departure to Juventus already confirmed - leaving Unai Emery with the task of replacing the Welshman.

The Gunners are also reportedly on the lookout for a left-back and also a wide player, with several targets missed out on in January.

Here are the latest updates and rumours for the players the Gunners have been linked with in the press in the last 24 hours.

Donny van de Beek

Ajax midfielder Donny van de Beek has a growing list of admirers, with Arsenal and Spurs reportedly chasing the 22-year-old.

Following an incredible Champions League run that’s taken Ajax to the semi-final via knockout encounters against Real Madrid and Juventus, Europe’s top clubs are eyeing up the squad’s young talents.

And Van de Beek is attracting interest from Real Madrid, Juventus and Bayern Munich, as well as the Premier League duo, according to  Marca via Sport Witness .

The Dutchman scored in Ajax's 2-1 win at the Allianz Stadium on Tuesday night, and they now face Tottenham in the last four.

Florian Thauvin

Arsenal are among the clubs reportedly monitoring Marseille attacker Florian Thauvin for this summer.

The former Newcastle winger is expected to leave the Ligue 1 club at the end of this season if they do not qualify for the Champions League, and Bayern Munich, Milan, Inter and Roma are supposedly interested in signing him.

However,  Foot-Sur7  state that Unai Emery in particular “really appreciates” Thauvin. But he will apparently only join another club who are in next year’s Champions League, as he wants to further his career and sees his level above the Europa League.

Denis Suarez

Denis Suarez could reportedly see his Arsenal loan cut short due to a groin injury.

The 25-year-old eventually joined the north London club on deadline day following protracted negotiations with Barcelona over a short-term loan with an option to buy.

However, he is yet to start a competitive game for Unai Emery, only making six substitute appearances so far.

And  Sport  report that this latest setback could derail his Arsenal career. The Premier League side are unlikely to sanction an £18m move on what they’ve seen thus far from the midfielder.
