Everything you need to know about Arsenal's transfer rumours as January window nears
Possible loan Interest in Ethan Nwaneri: Premier League clubs are expected to lodge their interest in a loan deal for the highly-rated Ethan Nwaneri this January. Despite his potential, the youngster has seen limited action this season with only 165 minutes of league football under his belt.
Scott McTominay rumours: Arsenal are claimed to be keeping a close eye on former Manchester United man Scott McTominay as a potential midfield addition. The Scottish international has impressed in his time at Napoli, and could be an option in the near future.
Kenan Yildiz links: The Gunners have made inquiries regarding Juventus forward Kenan Yildiz, who has recently stalled on signing a new contract with Juventus. Arsenal face stiff competition for the 20-year-old, as Chelsea, Liverpool, and Real Madrid are also monitoring his £84 million valuation.
North London battle for Aleksandar Stankovic: Arsenal have established initial contact for Club Brugge midfielder Aleksandar Stankovic to bolster their future options. They are not alone in their interest, however, as north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur are also waiting in the wings.
Rodrigo Mendoza scouted: The club’s recruitment team has been active in Spain, specifically scouting Elche’s young midfielder Rodrigo Mendoza. This move aligns with Arsenal’s broader strategy of identifying and securing high-potential talent from the European market.
Interest in Davide Bartesaghi: AC Milan full-back Davide Bartesaghi has emerged as a defensive target for the Gunners' scouting department. The Italian youngster has enjoyed a breakout season, as Arsenal appear to be planning for long-term depth along the backline.
Tracking Jean-Matteo Bahoya: Arsenal are also monitoring Eintracht Frankfurt forward Jean-Matteo Bahoya as they look to add versatility to their attack. He is another young forward who could offer some quality for the future.
