Latest transfer rumors from around the footballing world, including Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, and more.
Arsenal target Lyon striker
Arsenal are interested in signing Lyon striker Moussa Dembele, who is currently out on loan at Atletico Madrid.
Yet to find the back of the net since his loan move in January, Dembele has been unable to deliver up to the expectations at Atletico so far. As a result, Diego Simeone might not be too keen to sign him on a permanent basis.
A fee in the range of £25 million (€29m) would be required for the Gunners to land the 24-year-old Frenchman. [The Telegraph]
