Arsenal submit a bid to wrap up Ligue 1 star their fifth summer signing
Arsenal has made a £6 million bid to Lille for winger Edon Zhegrova, to make him the Gunners’ fifth summer signing.
Mikel Arteta has brought in Gabriel Jesus, Fabio Vieira, Matt Turner, and Marquinhos in the first few weeks of the summer transfer season.
After qualifying for European football, the Spanish manager will not be satisfied with a smaller group.
Lille winger Edon Zhegrova is one player Arsenal is interested in signing.
According to the Mirror, the Gunners have made a £6 million offer to sign the 23-year-old.
Zhegrova only joined Lille in January, but his strong performances have caught the attention of Arsenal.
Arteta is considering Zhegrova after appearing to miss out on Raphinha.
The Lille winger managed two goals and one assist in four starts for the French club.
Last season, Arsenal had no European distractions, which meant that all of their Premier League competitors were competing midweek while they would frequently go a week without a game.
After qualifying for the Europa League, Arteta will certainly have to rotate his players more frequently, thus bringing in extra squad depth this summer will be a wise decision.
