Mikel Arteta is planning to revamp his midfield at the next opportunity, and the Spanish manager has identified two players in Spain for this purpose.
Arsenal has been one of the in-form teams in Europe over the last two seasons, consistently delivering strong performances.
However, the Gunners might still have an issue in midfield, as players like Jorginho, Mohamed Elneny, and Thomas Partey are not getting any younger and their performance levels are declining.
Partey could be the first among them to be replaced. The Sun report suggests that Arsenal is considering replacing him with a La Liga midfielder.
According to the report, Martin Zubimendi of Real Sociedad and Aurelien Tchouameni of Real Madrid are the two players Arsenal is interested in adding to their squad.
These midfielders have been performing impressively on both the domestic and European stages, which has led Arteta to consider a move for them.
Just Arsenal Opinion
We need a midfield revamp and Zubimendi and Tchouameni are players who will do a good job for us.
We have done well in the transfer market recently and expect to convince Zubimendi to join us, but Tchouameni is just starting his time at Madrid and may reject our approach.

Tchouameni is a fantasy, surely?
What a stupid article, not a chance in hell of Tchouameni.
It seems almost certain to me that with PARTEY fast ageing and generally unfit, Jorginho also ageing and way below Partey in effectiveness AND Elneny, loyal likeable, but also way below the standard we need- indeed I FIND IT INCREDIBLE THAT HE IS STILL HERE -that come next season our more defensive midfielders will be completely different from now.
Zubimendi would be a great buy, but like others on here I see little likelihood forTchoumeni, excellent though he be.
True, a young talented DM is needed. But there are plenty in EPL itself. Vini Souza of Sheffield Utd is good at 24, Douglas Luiz still available at 25, Carlos Baleba is a massive talent at 19 and many more. Just some food for thought.
Baleba went to Brighton, but we are in for André Trindade, he seems legit. And we have Charlie Patino excelling for Swansea, maybe he can fill a spot next year?? Do believe he has got what it takes, he is special. So is Myles and Ethan, expect both to make the grade in a few years.
Zubimendi gives me ceballos and Denis suarez vibes,he looks to be too lightweight for the dm position while tchouameni to arsenal rumour is the same as the mbappe to arsenal one,it’s a nice fantasy that will never happen.
Definitely.
