The Gunners have already signed David Raya and Riccardo Calafiori this summer and they are expected to make more additions to the squad.

A new midfielder is one of the top priorities for the club and reports claim that they are close to signing Mikel Merino from Real Sociedad.

The club are also exploring another winger, but that would largely depend on the departure of Nelson during the ongoing transfer window .

The 24-year-old has made the decision to move on from the Gunners, but the club are yet to receive a suitable transfer offer for him.

Leicester City are interested in signing him on loan with an obligation to buy, but the Gunners prefer a permanent transfer instead.

Should Nelson head for the exit door, the club could swoop for a marquee winger. They are keeping tabs on Bayern's Leroy Sane .
