Following the news that Arsenal had missed out on Mykhaylo Mudryk, with Chelsea swooping in at the final moment, their transfer rumour mill has been all about forwards.
Nicolo Zaniolo and Raphinha are just two among many names linked with the Gunners, and while that will be a priority for Edu Gaspar before the end of the month, other areas are being looked at for the future.
That appears to be the case for midfield, with Arsenal reportedly taking an interest in Warren Zaïre-Emery, one of the starlets at Paris Saint-Germain.
This comes from RMC Sport journalist Fabrice Hawkins, who gives an update on the midfielder and his teammate Ismaël Gharbi.

Regarding Zaïre-Emery, it’s said that ‘several clubs including Arsenal’ are ‘closely interested’ in the 16-year-old to move in the ‘medium term’.
That suggests that the Gunners will not be trying their luck in January, but probably are thinking about future transfer windows for this particular transfer.
Either way, Paris Saint-Germain aren’t interested in selling, with it simply put that he is ‘untransferable’ for the Ligue 1 side.
The 16-year-old has a contract with the French team until 2025, meaning they are also well protected in that regard.
