According to a source from the Mirror, the Gunners are considering recruiting the French star.
There have been reports that Arsenal began to approach Ansu Fati’s agent in the context of the young Spaniard’s desire to leave Barcelona. However, the Emirates Stadium team is also paying attention to another name on the Barca payroll, which is Jules Kounde.
The Frenchman only moved to Camp Nou last summer, but soon established himself when helping Barca to win the La Liga title from rivals Real Madrid.
However, in the context that the Catalan team is facing a financial crisis, they still consider the possibility of selling Kounde if they receive a suitable offer.
Arsenal have added a versatile option for the defense, which is midfielder Jurrien Timber. However, with the Dutch star suffering a ligament injury and needing a long time to recover, they began to think about finding a new solution.
Kounde is also known as one of the most versatile players in Europe, being able to play well at both right-back and central-back roles. However, the Gunners may have to spend a lot of money if they want to convince Barca to let go.
