Arsenal Receive Transfer Boost As Dayot Upamecano Wants Premier League Move

Arsenal have been a huge boost regarding their summer transfer plans after reports emerged claiming Dayot Upamecano wants to play in the Premier League.

RB Leipzig defender Upamecano had been a target for Barcelona and PSG, but appears to want a move to England.

Arsenal will likely be on the hunt for a new central defender in the summer.

Mikel Arteta’s side were poor at the back throught the season, and prioritised defensive reinforcements during the January window.

Then ended up bringing in Cedric Soares and Pablo Mari, though neither had much of an impact before the season was suspended.

With the summer window in their sights, Arsenal singled out Upanecano as one of their top targets.

The French defender is out of contract next summer, and has shown no signs of wanting to extend his current deal.

Instead, he has reportedly made it clear that he wants a move away, leaving Leipzig with a dilemma on their hands.

The German side will now have to decide whether to let him leave this summer or risk him walking out for free at the end of next season.

Barcelona and PSG were both said to be sniffing around the 21 year old with the latter on the hunt for a replacement for Thiago Silva.
