Arsenal Monitor Winger as Chelsea Boss Issues Transfer Update

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has confirmed that he is ready to call on his winger for the upcoming Club World Cup semi-final against Fluminense, despite ongoing transfer interest from Arsenal.

The winger has emerged as a summer target for Arsenal, with reports suggesting personal terms have already been agreed between the player and the north London club. Arsenal are expected to submit an official bid soon as they look to strengthen their attacking options.

Although Chelsea are not actively looking to sell the 23-year-old, who arrived from PSV Eindhoven in a £30 million deal in January 2023, the club is willing to consider serious offers. Arsenal’s growing interest comes amid increased competition in Chelsea’s attack following recent signings, including Liam Delap, Joao Pedro, and Jamie Gittens. Additionally, young stars Kendry Paez and Estevao Willian are set to join this summer, further increasing depth in forward positions.

Maresca remains focused on Chelsea’s immediate priorities, confirming that the player remains in his plans for the Club World Cup clash. However, with Arsenal preparing their first offer, transfer talks could accelerate in the coming weeks.

As the transfer window progresses, Arsenal are clearly intent on adding quality to their squad, and this potential deal is one of several being closely monitored by supporters and pundits alike. The coming days could prove crucial in determining whether a deal is reached between the two London rivals.
