Arsenal transfer round-up: Camavinga deal planned as academy graduate rejects return

Arsenal have enjoyed a hectic January transfer window so far with a number of deals having already been sealed.

The Gunners were long linked with a move for Ukrainian winger Mykhaylo Mudryk - only to see him complete a mega money move to Premier League rivals Chelsea. Despite having missed out, Arsenal have still spent heavily. They sealed a £27m move for Brighton ’s Leandro Trossard on Friday, whilst Spezia defender Jakub Kiwior is set to follow him to the Emirates Stadium.

There could well be even more to sign between now and the end of the January transfer window. With that being said, here are the latest transfer rumours coming out of the Emirates Stadium over the past 24 hours.

Arsenal eye Camavinga on loan

Arsenal could potentially add a Champions League winner to their squad this winter with the Gunners reportedly eyeing a loan move for French midfielder Eduardo Camavinga. That is according to The Evening Standard who state that the North Londoners are interested in taking him to the Emirates Stadium until the end of the campaign.

It is suggested that the club’s owners are willing to back Arteta in the transfer market in the second half of the season. At this stage, it is unclear whether Real Madrid would be willing to let the young midfielder leave.

He has seen opportunities limited this season despite having played a key role for the Spanish side as they won the Champions League last season.

Rice’s private Gunners stance revealed

One other midfielder that Arsenal have been linked to this window is West Ham and England star Declan Rice. Previous reports have suggested that the Gunners have prioritised a move for the Hammers’ midfielder ahead of the summer window.

They could potentially get some encouragement from his stance regarding the Gunners. According to CBS, Rice has privately been praising Arsenal for the way they have played this season.

It is suggested that he has been left “stunned” by their progress under Mikel Arteta having been highly complimentary of the side when speaking with his teammates at the London Stadium.

Anthony rejects Arsenal move

Despite having signed Trossard, Arsenal reportedly remain interested in adding to their wide options. One of those linked with a switch has been former Hale End graduate Jaidon Anthony.

However, a move for him might be more difficult than first thought. According to his agent Godfrey Torto, Anthony remains keen on staying on the South Coast. As quoted by the Daily Echo, he said: “In terms of the contract situation, we are in dialogue.

“I think Jaidon has always been wanting to stay at the club and I think the main thing is trying to find a fair deal that he's happy with and works for the club. But we are in dialogue and it was last left for the club to come back.”
