Arsenal Transfer News: Latest Rumours on Wilfried Zaha and Yacine Brahimi

Arsenal have reportedly identified Wilfried Zaha as the ideal replacement for contract rebel Alexis Sanchez. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is said to be ready to pay as much as £35 million for the Crystal Palace winger.

Wenger sees Zaha as someone who can replicate Sanchez's match-winning qualities, according to Mike McGrath of The Sun: "Wenger believes he has the ability to replace Sanchez, who will leave the club when his contract expires at the end of the season or in January."
