The Premier League champions have already strengthened the middle of the pitch with Bruno Guimaraes, the wing with Christos Tzolis and their defence with Ezri Konsa. Although it appears to be a difficult deal due to many factors, the Gunners will be ready to act if there is a chance to get it done. Meanwhile, Gabriel Martinelli, who is in talks with Saudi side Al-Hilal, will be allowed to leave if the Gunners receive a suitable offer - as will Gabriel Jesus and Fabio Vieira if they can find respective buyers.
