Arsenal weigh up Real Madrid transfer swoop as fresh Man Utd option emerges

Arsenal remain on course to secure Champions League football, after another big win over the weekend.

Goals from Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli helped the Gunners claim an entertaining win over Watford on Sunday afternoon.

The Gunners are now a point ahead of Manchester United and with no fewer than three games in hand.

The job isn’t done yet, but Arsenal will already be tempted to prep their squad for a Champions League campaign, and there are already plenty of rumours doing the rounds.

Here are the latest:

Jovic move

Arsenal are said to be considering a move for Real Madrid striker Luka Jovic ahead of this summer.

The Serbian frontman is said to have turned down the chance to leave Los Blancos in the summer, keen to prove himself.

But Fichajes claim he could move this summer after struggling for game time again this season.

Real Madrid paid as much as €60million for Jovic, but they are not likely to earn that money back. The Gunners would still have to make a big offer, however.

Eyes on Rashford

Arsenal are one of a number of teams to be linked with Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford.

Rashford is being linked with an exit from Old Trafford, struggling under Ralf Rangnick.

According to 90min, Arsenal are one of a number of clubs keeping a close eye on the England international as he considers where his future should lie.

Roberto opportunity

Another player to be linked with Arsenal is Barcelona midfielder Sergi Roberto.

Roberto is out of contract this summer and no new deal has been agreed, with the Spain international currently out injured.

According to Mundo Deportivo via SportWitness, Arsenal are considering a move, and it might just make sense - given he would be available for free, and Roberto can play both in midfield and at right-back to a high level which makes him an alluring option.

The Gunners are already able to hold talks with Roberto.
