With Jarrad Branthwaite linked with a move away from Everton, they would need a considerable replacement in the heart of the defence.
Daniel Ballard has made 33 appearances for Sunderland in the ongoing campaign. Sunderland are said to be asking for around £20 million for the services of the 24-year-old centre back.
Any potential transfer for Daniel Ballard should be good news for Arsenal. According to a report by Football.London, Arsenal held a significant sell-on clause when they sold Ballard in 2022.
