Arsenal are desperate to bolster their midfield this summer, and the Gunners been heavily linked with a move for Lyon midfielder Houssem Aouar.
The Gunners have already made an opening bid for Aouar, but their £35 million offer falling short of the French side’s valuation. It was rejected immediately.
However, it seems that the Gunners are ready to step up their chase to sign the 22-year-old midfielder in the coming days.
According to reports from ESPN, the Gunners are confident that Aouar will join them before the transfer deadline next month.
