The Gunners currently have multiple left-back options in the form of Oleksandr Zinchenko , Takehiro Tomiyasu and Jakub Kiwior .

However, none of them have been consistent enough over the campaign and  manager Mikel Arteta may want a fresh competitor at the club.

Gutierrez has had a superb season at Girona where he has registered two goals and six assists in the Spanish top-flight for.

He has also impressed with his distribution and ball recoveries. His attacking traits would suit the manager's playing style.

He currently has a release clause worth €40m in his contract and it is left to be seen whether Arsenal trigger the reported value.

A move for Gutierrez would probably mean that Zinchenko will be offloaded by the hierarchy before the next season.

The Ukrainian has fallen out-of-favour since the New Year and he could pursue a new challenge away from the Gunners.
