Arsenal are eyeing another defensive enforcer in Guido Rodriguez as they look to create a dominating midfield partnership with Thomas Partey... his combative nature has caught the eye in LaLiga, but will the Gunners really fork out £68m to Real Betis?

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is already hatching plans for the summer transfer window following a turbulent season with the club stuck in mediocrity.

And one player he has an early eye on is Real Betis midfielder Guido Rodriguez, with reports from Mundo Deportivo claiming Arsenal are looking to activate his £68million release clause this summer.

It would be an audacious move by the Gunners considering they already have combative midfielder Thomas Partey in their ranks after signing him for £45m from Atletico Madrid last summer.

But here, Sportsmail has decided to take a close look at the 26-year-old Argentine, who has certainly caught the eye in LaLiga this season.
