It’s claimed the Gunners and the Bundesliga club have been keeping a close watch on the player and both have collected ‘positive reports about the midfielder’.
In fact, the outlet report the two clubs made moves via intermediaries in the summer and his signing could materialise in the upcoming windows.
According to Vamos Mi Sevilla FC, the La Liga club paid an additional €4m to own 90% of Agoumé’s rights.
His contract expires in 2028, and the report states Sevilla are looking at him as one of the next ‘big sales’, and this should please Arsenal, Borussia Dortmund and Agoumé’s other suitors.
