Ayyoub Bouaddi already featured prominently during Arsenal recruitment talks pre-World Cup.
Now rivals will also want a piece of the pie.
Andrea Berta started working on the file in late 2025 & #AFC firmly expected to be in mix, subject to price. 🇲🇦⬇️

Arsenal also working on outgoings. Saudi interest in Gabriel Martinelli remains. Bournemouth one club who have enquired on Leandro Trossard, who is also drawing interest from Europe. [@JacobsBen]
Arsenal's recruitment expert Maurizio Micheli flew to Sweden last week to run the rule over Tzolis (24y). Sources are indicating that Arsenal's interest is concrete, with Arteta believed to be on board with the signing. Tzolis could be available for around £35m.[@SamiMokbel_BBC]
Arsenal are exploring a deal to sign winger Christos Tzolis from Club Brugge.
Sources believe a deal for the 24-year-old could be possible for around €40million (£34.5m, $46.3m). [@David_Ornstein]
on Riccardo Calafiori to RealMadrid
There was a meeting between Real and Calafiori’s agent (A.Lucci) to explore this possibility. Josè Mourinho appreciates him a lot and Real are set to talk with Arsenal soon.
[@NicoSchira]
Real Madird asked Arsenal for info on Riccardo Calafiori. AS reports confirmed: Blancos interested in Italian Full-back (on Mourinho's list), but only a phone call so far. Madrid checking if Gunners open to sale; possible negotiations to be led by Lucci.

PSG’s 18-year-old defender Emmanuel Mbembais another prospect that has been discussed internally. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal are prepared to commit to meeting the salary demands of the France youth international. [@TheAthleticFC]
Arsenal's pursuit of Jeremy Monga (16Y) ongoing. Personal terms not an issue, but clubs no agreement yet. Monga expected to sign pro terms w/ Leicester in Jul. Arsenal likely to deal before then to avoid tribunal uncertainty. [@TheAthleticFC]
In their search for a new left winger, Arsenal made an enquiry about Juventus’ 21-year-old Turkish international Kenan Yildiz. They were informed in no uncertain terms that Yildiz was not for sale, and are consequently pursuing other options. [@TheAthleticFC]
Mbemba was told he would go out on a European loan until Jan 2027, allowing him time to secure a work permit to play in England. Although he has primarily played as a CB in PSG's youth ranks, Arsenal view him as a long-term option at LB. [@NizaarKinsella] https://t.co/dZHgNrt9ho
🚨Arsenal make an approach to sign PSG defender Emanuel Mbemba, 18, on a free transfer this summer. PSG also offered a deal but his contract expires at the end of the month and he is exploring his options to leave for a training fee in excess of £150,000
