The transfer window may have closed a few days ago, but as you know, clubs are still being linked with various players. The latest transfer rumour that may excite you as a Gunner is the possibility of signing Marco Asensio.
According to the Mirror, Arsenal will have a chance this week to persuade the Spaniard to join them in the summer.
If you are unaware of Asensio’s situation at Real Madrid, all you need to know is that the winger’s contract at Santiago Bernabeu expires in the summer, and contract extension talks have not been fruitful, so he could leave for free in the summer. And without an extension in place, Ascensio is now free to talk to club’s outside Spain ahead of a summer move.
Mikel Arteta likes Asensio and would welcome the opportunity to bring him on board. If everything goes as planned, Arteta’s dream may come true. According to reports, Asensio’s agent will be in England for the majority of this week to consider options for his client, and Arsenal will have the opportunity to preach to him about Arteta’s project.
“Marco Asensio agents jet in for Arsenal talks with Mikel Arteta a fan of Real Madrid star,” writes the Mirror.
According to reports, Asensio is looking for a four-year contract with a weekly salary of more than £118,000. Let’s wait and see what happens this week.

A bit too wordy. A pity to say so very much!
A Big Yes. Asensio is top Quality. He can rotate with Saka.
This guy is what we need. He takes shots, skillful and scores spectacular goals.
Exactly what we need in attack
The only contracts we should be getting done are those of Saka and Saliba ,two very important players for us this season that need tying down .
I’ve read this morning that Arsenal are preparing a huge offer for Rice in the summer and that his preferred destination is us .
The Mirror are notoriously full of shit so I wouldn’t put too much in to this 🙂
I’ll ask for SueP – is this Schmidt one of their writers?
If they’re full of his output he must be a very prolific writer 🙂
No thanks.
Not a fan of this lad neither am I enthused about any deal taking him to the Emirates.
But there seems to be some kind of intrest in the kid, he is over the ideal ages of the targets we like to sign but the fact he will be free in the summer I don’t know what to make of it.
