According to reports, Arsenal will accept offers for three players to fund a summer move for Newcastle United midfielder Bruno Guimaraes.
The Gunners have done some phenomenal business in recent years as they have become a consistent contender for the Premier League title.
They are unlikely to stand still during this summer s transfer window as they are expected to pursue a new midfielder, who could replace Thomas Partey.
Arsenal expert Charles Watts has encouraged the Premier League giants to find a new long-term successor to Partey this summer.
“He can be so dynamic in the No.8 role and can be such a threat in the final third. The more I see of him playing there, the more I think that could be his long-term position, Watts told Caught Offside.
“He’s taken to it so well and will only get better the more comfortable he gets playing there. So I’d be looking for a new No.6. Someone who can come in and play behind Rice – a new long-term successor to Thomas Partey.”
