Arsenal could offer five players to Brighton to land Jack Hinshelwood. Mikel Arteta still aims to add to his squad after spending around £144million so far this summer.
The Gunners boss plans to bring in more transfers ahead of their Premier League opener against Coventry City. Hinshelwood is one of Arsenal's primary targets and the club could consider swap deals to facilitate the move.
Club officials have reportedly contacted the midfielder's representatives, with an official bid ready to be made. However, Manchester United are also keen on Hinshelwood so Arsenal may need to make their offer more attractive to Brighton.
Player swaps have become something of a trend this summer following Dwight McNeil and Brennan Johnson's switch between Everton and Crystal Palace. McNeil headed south to join the Eagles while Johnson arrived on Merseyside to work under David Moyes.
Gabriel Jesus
Gabriel Jesus is one of the most likely options given Brighton's desire for a centre-forward and Arsenal's openness to letting him go. The Brazilian was omitted from the Gunners' Community Shield squad at the weekend and has been heavily linked with a move.

Serie A side Napoli have registered an interest with Arsenal keen to get rid of Jesus' £265,000-a-week wages. Brighton are in the market for a striker following Danny Welbeck's move to Chelsea and could consider the 29-year-old.
Myles Lewis-Skelly
Myles Lewis-Skelly was a standout performer in Sunday's 3-0 win over Manchester City, assisting Riccardo Calafiori's superb strike in the 23rd second. The versatile star has been heavily involved throughout Arsenal's pre-season tour but has been linked with a move away from north London.

The England international was offered to Chelsea and Manchester United earlier this window. If Arsenal still want him off the books then he could be used in a deal with Brighton.
Lewis-Skelly's potential is still sky high, given his youth, and the 19-year-old can play across the middle of the park as well as both full-back positions.

Ethan Nwaneri's departure remains likely this summer after ending up on loan to Marseille last season. The 19-year-old is under contract until 2030 and the Gunners may be leaning more towards another temporary move.

Recent reports suggest that Nwaneri has become a target for AC Milan. Brighton could take the winger to the American Express Stadium to provide competition for Yankuba Minteh.

Martin Zubimendi has shone for Arsenal since joining from Real Sociedad last summer. The Spaniard won the Premier League title at the first time of asking and Real Madrid have already expressed interest.
With Bruno Guimaraes joining earlier this month for £75m, Zubimendi may see his game time dwindling and could opt to move elsewhere to continue his upward trajectory.

Reiss Nelson is another Arsenal star heavily linked with a move away. The winger's contract is up at the end of the season and the club are looking to cash in before he becomes a free agent.
Earlier in July, Benfica and Fulham registered an interest in Nelson with a cut-price deal potentially available, so he could be a sensible makeweight.
