Breaking: Chelsea Ready To Swap Loftus Ruben Cheek For World-class Serie A Midfielder

Arsenal are arguably performing well in the summer transfer window, with technical director Edu having already completed the signings of Marquinhos and Vierra, both of whom are expected to play key roles in Arteta's current team.

The Spanish manager, on the other hand, is desperate to rebuild his striking department after the exits of Pierre Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette, leaving Eddie Nketiah as the lone forward option.

The Gunners have been linked with a group of high-profile players that can best incorporate Arteta's tactical abilities into something meaningful, with titles being Arteta's major goal for the upcoming campaign.

Arsenal are close to snatching EPL attacker and Leeds ace Raphinha from Spanish giants Barcelona, according to the Mirror Football, despite rumors that the 24-year-old has already inked terms with the catalans.

Raphinha is highly regarded by Arsenal's management after assisting Leeds to stay in the Premier League, therefore a move to Emirates is likely.

Raphinha is a magnificent signing for any club, and Arsenal are expected to be unstoppable with him up front with another devastating striker in Gabriel Jesus.
