At a Glance:

  • Arsenal have agreed personal terms with Leicester City winger Jeremy Monga.
  • Leandro Trossard has provided an update on his future.
  • Sandro Tonali is a player of interest to Andrea Berta.

Arsenal are working on several moves ahead of the summer transfer window, which opens on 15th June.

Despite winning the Premier League title, the Gunners aren’t prepared to rest on their laurels. Andrea Berta is looking to pull off some ambitious moves, with a left winger, a central midfielder and a right-back all on his agenda.

While we’re currently in the awkward period between the end of the season and the start of the window, this hasn’t prevented transfer speculation from circulating. With that said, here is the latest Arsenal news today, including updates on Jeremy Monga, Leandro Trossard and Sandro Tonali.

Arsenal agree personal terms with Jeremy Monga

Arsenal are looking to sign Jeremy Monga, Leicester City’s 16-year-old wonderkid, who has been tipped for greatness. Berta is intent on acquiring the best young talent from across the country to ensure that the Gunners keep building for the future.

According to HandofArsenal, Arsenal have agreed personal terms with Monga and his representatives. While there’s still work to be done regarding the fee, a deal is expected to accelerate in the coming weeks.

Monga has reportedly rejected other proposals from top clubs in favour of Arsenal, after Berta met with the player’s entourage recently. An immediate loan could be on the cards, if the deal with Leicester does indeed materialise.

Leandro Trossard provides update on his future

Alongside a handful of major acquisitions, Berta is also looking to ship several players this summer. Leandro Trossard is among those who could be on the way out, as the Belgian’s contract expires in 2027.

Speaking to Belgian media ahead of the World Cup on Friday, the wide forward commented on his Arsenal future.

“I am still a player for Arsenal, and we’ll see what happens in the summer,” he said.

While this doesn’t reveal much, he did refuse to rule out a departure, which certainly seems to suggest that it’s on the cards at the very least.

Arsenal ‘like’ Sandro Tonali

While recruiting top-class forwards this summer might be the priority, a central midfielder is still high on Berta’s list. Arsenal continue to be linked with Sandro Tonali, and Fabrizio Romano provided an update on the Newcastle man on Friday.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, the transfer guru confirmed that the Gunners are keen on Tonali, although Manchester City are also admirers of the Italian.

“Arsenal also like Tonali,” he said.

“Arsenal have also been in contact with people close to Tonali. But for Manchester City, [he] could become a priority if and only if they can’t get Elliot Anderson.”
