For the most part, it looks like Arsenal are done with their transfer business having signed five players so far.
But that has not stopped other players from being linked with a move to the Emirates. One such player is the Frenchman Ousmane Dembele who plays for Barcelona. He was spotted with a few Arsenal players who were present in Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s house.
Naturally, this has gotten Arsenal fans gotten quite excited as they think that this is a hint about where Dembele will end up playing.
He has been linked with a move away from Barcelona for some time now and those rumors intensified once the Spanish club made a move for Malcolm from Bordeaux.
This has made Dembele feel a little unsettled and it is said that as a result of this, he is looking for a move away. It goes without saying that if the Gunners were able to capture him, it will be one of the best pieces of business that they have done in quite a while.
The process of getting him to the Emirates is going to be complicated because of how much Barcelona originally paid for him. Since that sum was very big, there is a good chance that they will be looking to recover at least some part of it.
There are a few reasons as to why he would want to come and join the Gunners. One would be the opportunity to reunite with his good friend Aubameyang who formed an outstanding partnership with Dembele both on and off the pitch. And also, Sven Mislintat is the one who brought him to Dortmund so Arsenal have that advantage as well.
The biggest question is however if the Gunners will have the necessary funds to convince Barcelona to let go of Dembele. If they are able to do that, it will be an enormous boost to the club as well as the fans. And since the transfer window is about to close very soon, Arsenal need to act quickly.
