Arsenal chances of signing long term target have been given a massive boost.
Arsenal may be lucky enough to sign one of the highest-rated young defenders next summer as his German side gets set to sell him off.
Arsenal has been looking to sign Dayot Upamecano for some time now and they even had a ยฃ55 million offer rejected by RB Leipzig over the summer.
However, reports in Le Parisien claims that the Germans are finally ready to sell him off next summer.
The report claims that Leipzig is preparing to sign his replacement, should the move go through, Arsenal would be free to get their man.
Leipzig is said to be confident of sealing a move for 17-year-old PSG youngster, Tanguy Kouassi.
Kouassi is highly-rated at PSG but he knows that the path to the first team is almost fully blocked so Leipzig hopes to woo him to Germany with the promise of more first-team action.
His move would pave the way for Upamecano to join Arsenal. Their defence has been one of Arsenalโs major problems this season, they may need to spend significantly to make their defence better, Upamecano would be the perfect defender for the teamโs long term plans.
Arsenal is, however, struggling to get into a European place at the moment and that could see their rivals beat them to the signature of the young defender.
Sign him up! Alongside Saliba next season ๐ I laughed at Gotanidea when he was praising Adama Traore but I’m starting to agree with him now ๐ he looks quality.. has given Mendy a torrid time tonight! Sign him up ๐
Haha gotanidea will be drooling over him right now (or should I say dribbling?!) ๐
He’ll be converting defenders into inverted wingers tonight ๐๐
Where is he?! Bet he’ll be on now it’s finished!
That Traore is a big, big unit. Can’t believe how quick he is, with all that muscle!!
That was crap though, Kev. Just deciding where to book a one way flight to in May and come back at the start of next season!
City have lost 5 times now the same as us.. draws are killing is ๐ I know he usually posts first ๐ฎ Traore is what we need Sue can’t believe I’m saying that ๐ I always knew he was quality he just needed his muse to strike ๐๐ north Korea Sue Liverpool are champions ๐
Actually, sod the return flight, I’ll stay there ๐
Way too many draws, Kev!
That is ๐ฉ, so, so gutted!!!
Doherty!!! 3-2 Wolves the Arteta effect is over ๐๐
*killing us
You might have to Sue ๐๐ it was bound to happen eventually! I hate saying it but Liverpool look unbeatable ๐ one draw all season, 1 defeat in a year ๐ you looking forward to the Chelsea game ๐ looks like Xhaka is off ๐ฎ
Yeah well enough of that rubbish ๐
Yes, I am ๐ณ You? Haven’t a scooby what the score will be though!
Is it all talk though?!
No haha ๐ I was really annoyed we didn’t win yesterday ๐ I’m not sure but it said something on sky sports news that Xhaka will be the first to leave ๐ฎ so Sue will you be the next Fallon Sherrock ๐
๐๐ I wish!!!

Been saying this before Arteta got the job. The board wants to bring in a big money defender for the new manager. I said they want Upamecano, probably by the summer…
but now, during the past few days, Arsenal has actually approached Napoli to enquire about Koulibaly.
Either ways, just know next summer, we’ll be having one of the two players, depending on who Arterta wants and who’s available between both.
I wouldn’t laugh Man City though, at their worst, they can still beat us clean and square
I wanted them to bloody win, Eddie!! โน
Eddie, Arsenal may have enquired after Koulibaly but i think the player himself has bigger ambitions than us. Even utd would be ahead of us on that one.
I’m still waiting for Liverpool to lose….. I think they’ll be champions this year though
Otamendi is city’s carbon copy of mustafi fun fact: valencia had The two clowns in the team๐๐๐๐
Injury prone. Please do not sign him.
Hmmmm looks like Saliba as well
