All the latest Arsenal transfer news in one place, including updates on Alejandro Garnacho, Nico Williams and Benjamin Sesko.

Garnacho interest confirmed

Arsenal are one of the three Premier League clubs interested in Manchester United outcast Alejandro Garnacho. Last week, it was revealed that three unnamed English clubs were 'pushing' to sign the Argentine.

Two of these three clubs are said to be Arsenal and Chelsea, with the latter not a surprise given that they have been interested in Garnacho since January. Arsenal, on the other hand, are a fresh link.

The Gunners are known to be in the market for a left-winger and are exploring several options alongside Garnacho, such as Rodrygo, Nico Williams and Rafael Leao.

Williams says yes to Bayern

Long-time Arsenal target Nico Williams has signalled his willingness to join Bayern Munich this summer, according to reports in Germany. The Bavarians are looking for a left-winger and have identified Williams and Bradley Barcola as two top targets.

Due to doubts over Barcola's attainability, talks have been held with Williams, and the player indicated that he would be open to joining the Bundesliga champions. This prompted more efforts from the Munich outfit.

However, similar to Arsenal last year, Bayern have concerns over Williams' hefty salary, which currently sees him earn up to €8 million net per season. His €60m release clause is seen as great value for money, though.

Man Utd open Gyokeres talks

Man Utd have opened talks with the representatives of Arsenal target Viktor Gyokeres in recent days. The Red Devils made contact with the player's camp via intermediaries.

The Old Trafford club sought information on the conditions of a potential deal following reports that Gyokeres would be open to joining them even without Champions League football.

It remains to be seen if anything will come of this, but Man Utd will try to bring in the Swede this summer, with Arsenal seemingly focusing more on Benjamin Sesko now.

New Sesko talks required

Regarding Benjamin Sesko, Arsenal will require yet more discussions with RB Leipzig before the deal can be considered imminent. The complex nature of the striker's release clause has made it necessary for the two clubs to engage in formal negotiations.

Sesko would be keen on the move, but Fabrizio Romano reports that patience is needed as no full agreement on personal terms has been reached. More talks with the player and Leipzig will therefore take place this week.

Leipzig are reportedly demanding up to €100m for the 22-year-old, although it is expected that a fee closer to his €80m release clause will ultimately seal the deal.
