Antonio Nusa remains one of Arsenal’s leading transfer targets after impressing for Norway at the World Cup, with the Gunners keen to add him to their squad this summer. The winger produced eye-catching performances during the tournament, further increasing interest in his services.
Nusa could leave RB Leipzig in the current transfer window, with several clubs already monitoring his situation before the World Cup. Liverpool was also among the teams considering a move for the talented attacker, who has attracted attention from some of Europe’s biggest clubs.
Arsenal consider Nusa as replacement option
According to EPL Index, Arsenal are prepared to offer €40m to test Leipzig’s determination to keep Nusa at the club. The Gunners believe the amount could be enough to bring the German side to the negotiating table, even if it may not be sufficient to complete an agreement immediately.
Arsenal are determined to strengthen their squad with some of the best players available on the market, and Nusa is viewed as one of the attackers who could replace Leandro Trossard. The club are looking for further quality in wide areas as they continue to improve their options.
The Gunners could also consider selling Gabriel Martinelli this summer, as they are waiting for offers for the Brazilian. He is not considered one of the players who cannot be sold, which could create further space for an attacking addition.
Nusa open to Premier League challenge
Nusa would reportedly be open to moving to England and testing himself against some of the strongest opposition in the world. A move to the Premier League could provide him with another opportunity to continue developing as a player.
Arsenal would be keen to secure his signature if they decide to push forward with their interest. The winger’s performances for Norway and his ability at club level have made him an attractive option for the Gunners.
RB Leipzig will now have to consider whether they want to keep Nusa or listen to offers for one of their important players. Arsenal’s interest could develop further in the coming weeks as they look to strengthen their attacking options.
