Arsenal could hijack Liverpool’s move for Yan Diomande this summer, as Sky Sports claims that the Gunners are showing interest in the Ivory Coast international.

It comes as the Gunners are tracking several wingers in the transfer market in the hopes of improving their forward ranks going into next season.

The left wing has emerged as requiring the most immediate attention, as Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard continue to be linked with a potential exit in the coming weeks.

PSG’s Bradley Barcola has become a key target for Arsenal this summer, though there is uncertainty over whether the European champions will be willing to sell the Frenchman, even with his deal dwindling towards the final few years.

With that in mind, focus could soon switch to Diomande, who has already taken the World Cup by storm.

As per the report from Sky Sports, Diomande is a player on Arsenal’s radar this summer as a potential option for the flanks, after an impressive campaign for RB Leipzig.

The 19-year-old has burst onto the scene in the Bundesliga, just one year on after he made the switch from Spanish side Leganes in the 2025 summer transfer window.

Any deal could be tough, given that Leipzig have placed a £130 million price tag on Diomande, according to reports, as plenty of top clubs show interest in a potential deal.

Liverpool appear most advanced in getting a deal done, with talks held and an offer being prepared to get personal terms over the line in the coming weeks.

If Arsenal are to swoop in and get a deal done, that would be quite the hijack to land one of the most in-demand players on the market this summer.

There may be some risk involved in landing the youngster, who has such a small sample size in senior football, but it’s one that the Gunners could take.

Given how recently he broke through as a superstar, there is naturally an element of risk surrounding Diomande, and a potentially inflated transfer price to go with it.

However, that can be justified by the talent he has already displayed, and the potential he has to take himself to a whole other level in the near future.

Typically, Bundesliga attackers haven’t translated well to the Premier League, Erling Haaland aside. But the World Cup is showing that the 19-year-old can compete with the very best.

Diomande managed to rinse Arsenal star Piero Hincapie on a few occasions in Ivory Coast’s win over Ecuador, showing the ability he has to wreak havoc on the opposition defenders.

His pace and trickery bring something that the Gunners could do with on the left, while he has the versatility to feature on the right should they wish to use him there too.

It would certainly be a risk, but one that Arsenal should be willing to take while they are working from a position of strength, while also impacting their rivals’ transfer business.

Manchester United are still on the lookout for midfielders in the summer transfer window, as Sky Sports Germany reports of a fresh option in the market for the Red Devils.

The central ranks remain an important area of change for Michael Carrick, with a clear need to add some more quality when in possession.

An exit for Casemiro should be followed by a move for Manuel Ugarte, showing a clear change in approach, with some replacements already on the cards.

A deal has been agreed for Ederson from Atalanta, but the second signing behind him in midfield is currently unclear, as links continue to arise over several different candidates.

The likes of Sandro Tonali, Alex Scott, Mateus Fernandes, Carlos Baleba, and more have all been rumoured with interest from Man United, as they cast a wide net to land the ideal addition for the future.

A fresh name has now joined the race for the Red Devils, but there is competition for his signature.

Man United Want Felix Nmecha

According to a report from Sky Sports Germany, Man United are in the mix to sign Borussia Dortmund midfielder Felix Nmecha this summer.

The 25-year-old has impressed since joining the Bundesliga outfit back in 2023, becoming a regular feature in the centre of the pitch across all competitions.

That has caught the eye of Man United, as well as a few of their rivals, as Manchester City and Real Madrid are also claimed to be in the race for his signature.

Any move this summer looks difficult, however, as Borussia Dortmund are intent on keeping the German international for at least another season of action.

His club hold a contract until 2030, and while he does have a release clause in the region of £60.5 million, that doesn’t become active until next summer at the earliest.

Any deal this summer is likely to eclipse that, due to Dortmund’s stance, but it would make for an ideal move to land a player who can make an impact in the here and now.

How Good Is Felix Nmecha?

Nmecha is a target for several clubs for good reason, following a few consistent years of standout performances in the Bundesliga.

The 25-year-old came through the Manchester City academy, but made just three senior appearances before making a move to Wolfsburg.

It only took two seasons of consistent football in the Bundesliga for him to catch the eye, as Borussia Dortmund took their chance to try and develop their next big talent.

Nmecha has been described as the perfect replacement for Rodri at Man City, prompting talks of a potential return as the club looks to build for the long-term future without the Ballon d’Or winner.

With that clear ability in his locker, and the potential to grow even further as he nears the peak years of his career, there is some hope that Man United could pounce on the mistake of their nearest and dearest rivals.

Tottenham have reportedly made an offer to sign a new forward for Roberto De Zerbi ahead of the summer transfer window.

Spurs certainly aren’t messing around in the window, which is no surprise after their disappointing few years.

The North London club have already confirmed the additions of Andy Robertson and Marcos Senesi, who have signed on three-year deals from Liverpool and Bournemouth, respectively.

The club are clearly looking to back De Zerbi after he showed that he’s capable of turning things around during the final few weeks of the season.

Tottenham need reinforcements all over the pitch heading into the 2026-2027 season, especially if they want to climb into the top half of the Premier League table.

Tottenham Submit Winger Offer

According to a report from Ferveur Lyonnaise, Tottenham have submitted an offer to sign Lyon winger Malick Fofana ahead of the summer transfer window.

Spurs are believed to have made an offer in the region of £22 million, including bonuses. He is already looking to get rid of his house to prepare for a departure.

Fofana has accepted an offer from Tottenham, with his agent expected to travel to England this week to finalise a deal.

Lyon are hoping to receive a fee higher than £22 million, but it looks like a deal could happen in the near future.

Fofana, described as explosive, is clearly keen on the move, but Tottenham might have to increase their proposal.

Tottenham Aren’t Messing Around

Tottenham certainly aren’t messing around in the summer transfer window and, as mentioned, have already brought Robertson and Senesi to the club.

Reports have now emerged that Tottenham are pushing to sign Newcastle midfielder Sandro Tonali, and the Italian international wants to make the move to North London this summer.

GIVEMESPORT correspondent Ben Jacobs has also claimed that Tottenham have made an enquiry to beat Manchester United to the signing of West Ham midfielder Mateus Fernandes.

Spurs are also believed to be working on deals to sign Savinho from Man City and Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton. It’s safe to say they are active in the summer transfer window.
