Arsenal have been handed a boost in their bid to sign a new centre-back as Romano reveals talks with a Premier League star.
Arsenal have been handed a boost in their bid to sign a new centre-back as Sporting have decided to cut the asking price of one of the Gunners’ top targets.
They’ve been linked with a number of centre-backs, including Sporting’s Ousmane Diomande, and reports in Portugal claim the Primeira Liga champions have decided to reduce their asking price for the 20-year-old in order to secure a transfer fee this summer. Sporting ‘admit’ to selling the defender this summer and while Arsenal’s interest is ‘nothing new’, Diomande’s selection in the Portuguese league’s best XI by coaches and captains appears may well have focused their attention.Thomas Partey has been heavily linked with an exit having barely played this season, and it’s been claimed by multiple outlets that Arteta and Edu are particularly keen on Everton’s Amadou Onana as his replacement.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has confirmed there’s been “contact” with his representatives from Arsenal, but there will be competition for his services and he’s one of a number of names on the Gunners shortlist.
