DONE DEAL ✅ – “He’ll be an Arsenal player within the next 24-48 hours” – Arsenal has reached an arrangement with European Giants to SIGN their best-rated player for a low sum as top-class star signs contract till 2029.

Amadou Onana is emerging as Arsenal’s prime target for midfield reinforcement, with his representative recently seen in north London. Speculations linking the Everton midfielder to the Emirates Stadium have gained traction in the past few days, suggesting that Onana is contemplating a departure from Goodison Park, while Arsenal expresses a keen interest in acquiring his services.

Mikel Arteta is eager to fortify his squad, aiming to turn around Arsenal’s season after a challenging festive period. Despite the club’s determination to enhance its roster, securing top-quality additions in the January transfer window proves challenging. The likelihood of landing key targets might have to wait until the summer.

The Evening Standard reports that among the midfield options, Amadou Onana stands out as the most plausible choice for Arsenal. Even though Everton faces financial challenges, the release of a pivotal player like Onana in January seems improbable. Arsenal’s pursuit of the midfielder might need to be patient, especially considering Everton’s precarious situation with a 10-point deduction and the looming threat of relegation.

The report emphasizes that a summer transfer for Onana appears most probable for Arsenal, with Chelsea and Manchester United also expressing interest. The Belgian’s agent was seen in north London on Monday, potentially gauging interest for a prospective summer move. Everton had previously demanded £50 million for Onana during the summer, and given his recent performances, this fee is unlikely to decrease.
