Arsenal have reportedly sent scouts to France to watch Seko Fofana, Kevin Danso, and Lois Openda from Lens. Arsenal are reportedly in the process of identifying potential transfer targets that could bolster their squad and aid in their pursuit of the Premier League title in the upcoming season.
Fofana has been on Arsenal’s radar for some time as the club looks to strengthen their midfield, which is their top priority this summer. He has drawn comparisons to former Manchester City midfielder Yaya Toure owing to his playing style.
Arsenal have reportedly set their sights on Declan Rice and Moises Caicedo as their primary transfer targets. However, acquiring the services of these players may come at a hefty price for the Gunners this summer.
Arsenal are reportedly monitoring other options, including Fofana, who has been impressing in Ligue 1 for a number of years. Arsenal may have their sights set on the skilled midfielder.
Despite his impressive performances, Fofana’s age (28) may not be in his favour, potentially deterring Mikel Arteta from pursuing him. However, in the event that Arsenal is unable to secure their primary targets, it would not be unexpected for them to contemplate a potential move for Fofana.
