David Raya Completes Medical Ahead of Arsenal Move
According to reports, David Raya has completed the first part of his medical ahead of his switch to Arsenal. The Brentford goalkeeper is set to move on a £3 million season-long loan, with the option of a £27 million permanent transfer.
Possible Signing of Douglas Luiz
Arsenal is also reviving their interest in Aston Villa star Douglas Luiz. The Gunners are considering a late bid for Luiz, who is valued at around £35 million. Villa is currently looking at possible replacements for Luiz, indicating that a deal may be on the horizon.
Outgoings at Emirates Stadium
In addition to potential signings, there are also expected outgoings at the Emirates Stadium in the coming weeks. One player in question is striker Folarin Balogun. Inter Milan, AC Milan, and Atletico Madrid have all been linked with the 22-year-old, but Monaco is now the favorite to sign him. Balogun is reportedly more inclined to move abroad than to a Premier League rival like West Ham.
