Arsenal remain hopeful over Partey but eye up Pereira alternative

The Gunners would be willing to include Matteo Guendouzi as part of a deal to bring the Atletico Madrid star to Emirates Stadium

Arsenal could firm up interest in Porto's Danilo Pereira if Atletico Madrid refuse to soften their stance over Thomas Partey this summer.

Partey has been a long-term target of the Gunners, with their interest dating back well beyond Mikel Arteta’s arrival as head coach in December.

The Spaniard is also an admirer of the Ghana international, however, and would be happy to see him arrive this summer as he attempts to build a squad capable of competing for the top four next season.
