Arsenal are thought to be tracking highly-rated Burnley winger Dwight McNeil – so should the Gunners end their long-term interest in Bournemouth’s Ryan Fraser?
According to the Burnley Express, cited by the Metro, Arsenal, Everton and Manchester City are all tracking the teenager ahead of a possible summer swoop.
Unai Emery looks set to be busy in the current window, with the Gunners keen on bolstering their options at the back and in midfield.
Reinforcements out wide are also thought to be high on Emery’s list, with Bournemouth’s Fraser a long-term target at the Emirates.
The Scot excelled last season, scoring eight times and providing 15 assists, striking up a brilliant relationship with Cherries striker Callum Wilson.
In terms of who would be a better signing next season, Fraser appears to be the sensible option, however, Burnley’s McNeil looks set to be a star in the future.
The 19-year-old enjoyed an outstanding first full season at Turf Moor under Sean Dyche, making 26 appearances.
McNeil’s direct approach came in for plenty of praise, with the teenager finding the back of the net on three occasions.
Both players are realistic options for the Gunners, however, signing both this summer appears to be unlikely.
