First Summer Signing. Done ✅: Arsenal finally completes the signing of a 24-year-old superstar; agreement made overnight on a 5-year contract. Medical fixed; official news will be made today. Welcome to Emirates!

Here is the most recent transfer rumor from Arsenal, who is allegedly one of three teams keeping an eye on a talented young forward for EURO 2024.

Kilicsoy, Semih

We start with some news regarding Semih Kilicsoy, a striker for Besiktas, from Turkey. Scouts from Manchester City, Arsenal, and Tottenham Hotspur will be watching Kilicsoy during the European Championships, according to Turkish publication Sabah. Scouts from these three English clubs reportedly watched Turkey defeat Georgia in their opening match. According to HITC, Manchester City and Arsenal are in the lead in the competition for the gifted 18-year-old forward.

Youssouf Fofana

According to a report from The Athletic, Arsenal is thinking about signing a defensive midfielder to play alongside Declan Rice. Youssouf Fofana, the midfielder for AS Monaco, is reportedly attracting interest from both AC Milan and Arsenal, according to Ben Jacobs. Fofana might only cost Arsenal £15 million, making him a reasonably priced addition. Should the team choose to pursue the transfer, he could be a good fit and be able to play as a number six.

Zirkzee Joshua

After Benjamin Sesko decided to stay at RB Leipzig, Arsenal is also looking for a striker. They have expressed interest in a few forwards, including Joshua Zirkzee of Bologna. Arsenal, Manchester United, and Liverpool were reportedly interested in the Dutch forward, according to HITC. But according to David Ornstein of The Athletic, Manchester United and Zirkzee’s team are presently having advanced discussions. With a £34 million release clause on the striker, United is reportedly interested in signing him. This would be a serious blow to Arsenal.

Guimaraes Bruno

The last name in this roundup is Bruno Guimaraes, a midfielder for Newcastle United who has been connected to a transfer to Arsenal. Given that Newcastle was unable to secure European football, Guimaraes’ future at the club is in doubt. According to HITC, Manchester City is prepared to meet the Brazilian’s £100 million release clause if it so chooses. Arsenal isn’t ready to pay this amount, though. However, Guimaraes is reportedly excited about the prospect of leaving Newcastle this summer, according to a report from the Spanish publication Sport, which may allow Arsenal to pursue a move.
