Arsenal go after Umtiti

According to a recent report from Mundo Deportivo, Premier League side Arsenal are considering the possibility of making a bid for Samuel Umtiti. The popular French defender could become available during the summer transfer window, and if that is indeed the case, the Gunners will be at the front of the line in the race for his signature. Umtiti hasn’t always been a first team sensation at the Nou Camp but he’s certainly done his part, which is why so many top European clubs around the continent are monitoring his progress.

Arsenal’s defensive issues are still very much present but Unai Emery is well aware of that, with this proposed move showcasing that the gaffer knows exactly what type of stars he wants for this squad.

Arsenal are set to return to action on Monday Night Football against Newcastle United, as they continue to try and solidify their place in the top four – which would lead to all important Champions League football.
