The French midfielder has been in excellent form for the Ligue 1 club, drawing attention from several top teams across the continent.
Arsenal, according to L’Equipe, is monitoring Fofana closely as they plan a potential move for the talented midfielder.
As he prepares for Euro 2024 with the French national team, Arsenal is actively strategising their approach to secure his signature.
There’s been a boost for Arsenal in their pursuit, as a report from Alfredo Pedulla indicates that Fofana could be available for just 15 million euros, approximately £13 million.
Monaco is reportedly willing to sell him at this price to avoid losing him for free next summer when his contract expires in 2025.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Fofana has been one of the finest midfielders in Ligue 1 and he clearly can thrive at a much bigger club.
If we are looking for a good midfielder that will not cost us much, then we need to try to sign him.

R.I.P Kevin Campbell 🙂
Arteta sign him as a replacement for partey
He’s going to start for France at the Euros. 15 is a ridiculous value.
That’s peanut money for a player of his caliber. 25-30m still a bargain. A very low risk signing. Martin Zubimendi would be a better buy and I reckon is more preferable to Arteta. Fofana is more of a all action midfielder with superior physical attributes and Zubimendi is more disciplined in defense, excellent tempo dictator and a better passer. Both or either would be a great additional.
I would get him in just to replace El Neny.
We need a squad to compete in all competitions. Last season we did not put up much of a fight in the domestic cups.
Just offer 19 and get it done asap..!!
What is Arsenal board waiting for? Only £13m???
Arsenal and Arteta will buy someone like Fabio Viera for 50M. They don’t buy a player in 15M. Then the as usual excuses of not having enough good players for competing in all cups 😀
Arsenal needs to do better, aside buying players for competition, I think buying and selling players for profit too can increase its revenue drive. Buying for 15M and after awhile if not suitable for your style sell for a good value. Wenger was smart with deal like this then. We need FOFANA if Elneny & Partey is leaving
