Transfer Report: Arsenal could still sign Chelsea target in the next transfer window

Arsenal could apparently reignite their enthusiasm for Lyon midfielder Houssem Aouar when the January transfer window opens.

The Premier league giants were unequivocally connected with the France international over the summer but couldn’t go to an agreement with Lyon over a transfer fee and ended up signing Thomas Partey from Atletico Madrid.

Houssem Aouar actually has more than two years left to run on his contract in France, while he has started the 2020-21 season in solid form, contributing one goal in five appearances.

Juventus and Real Madrid have also been connected with the midfielder, and it had been asserted that Arsenal had botched their chance to sign him.

Nonetheless, as per report, should Arsenal figure out how to offload a few players and trim their wages financial plan in January then they could ‘try things out with Lyon once more’.

The report asserts that another methodology for Houssem Aouar can’t be precluded as Mikel Arteta hopes to assemble a squad fit for trying for silverware.

The Frenchman made his debut for France in their friendly with Ukraine not long ago.
