Arsenal were one of the busiest clubs in the Premier League during the summer transfer window.
Mikel Arteta welcomed a host of new faces to the Emirates Stadium throughout the summer months and their summer shopping finally appears to be paying off.
The Gunners are in fantastic form in the Premier League following their shaky start with the likes of Aaron Ramsdale, Nuno Tavares and Takehiro Tomiyasu all starring in recent weeks.
Despite that, attention is now set to turn to the January transfer window, with the market set to open in less than two months’ time.
Arsenal have already been linked with a number of names as they look to strengthen their charge for a European place come the end of the campaign.
With that being said, football.london takes a look at the latest transfer news and rumours.
Who?
Gareth Bale
Where?
What?
It is being suggested that the Gunners are preparing to bring the former Tottenham Hotspur forward back to the Premier League with a tentative bid to Real Madrid.
The Gunners are apparently set to table a €5million (£4.2million) bid for the Welshman’s services in an effort to bring him to the Emirates Stadium sooner rather than later.
Who?
Dusan Vlahovic
Where?
What?
Whilst Bale could be relatively affordable, one man who could cost slightly more is Fiorentina’s Dusan Vlahovic.
The Gunners have been linked with a move for the Serbian frontman for some time and if reports are to be believed, have moved to the ‘front row’ in an attempt to sign him.
Their task might not be as easy as first perceived though, with Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Juventus all thought to hold an interest in Vlahovic.
Who?
Alexandre Lacazette
Where?
What?
football.london reported that Alexandre Lacazette was set to leave Arsenal upon the expiry of his contract, and that still remains to be the case.
One of his potential suitors was Atletico Madrid, with the Spanish giants reportedly interested in a move for the Frenchman.
However, Diego Simeone now has an alternative to consider in the form of Red Bull Salzburg’s Karim Adeyemi. He has reportedly been offered to Atleti by his agent, although Lacazette is considered as a far more affordable option considering that he would be available on a free transfer.
