Dominik Szoboszlai is a name some Arsenal supporters would have heard of following the summer window.
The Gunners were tipped as potential suitors for the talented midfielder, who currently plies his trade with RB Salzburg, in recent months, however, a move never materialised.
There has now been a further update on Arsenal’s reported interest, with football.london claiming that the Gunners’ initial enquiry was with a view to a move at the end of the current 2019/20 season.
Both Inter Milan and Juventus are also tracking the midfielder, who recently netted his first senior goal for his country during the international break.
And these fans were quick to respond to the news on social media shared by football.london’s James Benge, with many calling for the club to make their move for the Hungarian midfielder.

Salzburg have played key roles in the careers of Liverpool duo Sadio Mane and Naby Keita, but what would the midfielder bring to the Emirates if he made the move?

In terms of Szoboszlai’s style of play, many have compared him to former Arsenal star Aaron Ramsey.
Both have the capabilities to make late goalscoring runs into the area, while also possessing brilliant dribbling and passing qualities.
The 18-year-old showcased those abilities against Genk on Tuesday evening, scoring Salzburg’s fifth shortly before the interval.
Arsenal’s decision on whether or not to attempt to land the teenager could be dependent on Dani Ceballos’ long-term future.
However, if the Gunners do firm up their interest at the end of the season, they look set to battle numerous European giants for his services, and if they are successful, they’d certainly be picking up a future star.
