Antoine Semenyo latest
Arsenal would reportedly prefer to sign Semenyo in the summer, despite other clubs being able to trigger his release clause in January.
The Athletic's David Ornstein explained the Gunners' stance, claiming: "The names that are emerging as the leading contenders right now are Manchester City and Manchester United, in no particular order. They are both extremely fond of him.
"Liverpool are said to have had great admiration for him. They haven’t moved to the same extent so far, to my knowledge, but let’s see if anything changes around the Alexander Isak injury, because we have just broken the news that Liverpool fear that it is a significant injury to his lower left leg.
"Tottenham were very keen, and I’m led to believe were prepared to pay a significant salary to Antoine Semenyo, but he’s politely focusing on other options, mainly it seems City or United, and he will have to make a decision around that.
"I think Arsenal might have looked at the situation, but more towards the summer, and I don’t think he’s willing to wait until that point."
