Arsenal Transfer News: Why do gunners have an advantage in the pursuit of the former Liverpool star

Arsenal are leading the way in recruiting AC Milan striker Suso, with Monchi's imminent arrival as Sports Director.

The Gunners are expected to make the difference with Suso, a 25-year-old player, this summer, as they try to become contenders in the Champions League again.

But they are not the only club to sue the former Liverpool striker, also on Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur.

However, Arsenal leads its Premier League rivals thanks to the Monchi affair, reports the Italian Tuttosport point of sale.

Monchi should meet Arsenal boss Unai Emery after their collaboration in Seville. Monchi has tried to get Suso signed during his stay in Rome and will resume negotiations in his new club if Unai Emery gives his approval, according to Sportsmole.

The arrival of Monchi at The Emirates will also place Arsenal in pole position contract with Alex Grimaldi, the director of Benfica, said the Express.

23-year-old left-back Grimaldo is one of the top-ranked players outside of Europe's major leagues and has been linked to both the Gunners and Premier League rivals Manchester City.

The positions of the backs being a problem for the gunners, they would also be interested in Porto's left-back Alex Telles.

Ever Banega, Ismaila Sarr and Nicolas Tagliafico are among the other players to have been badociated with a move to Arsenal this summer.

Arsenal will learn from opponents in the Europa League quarter-final on Friday after beating Rennes 3-0 on Thursday for a 4-3 victory.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang made the headlines after the win over Rennes. The Gabon striker scored two goals, while the celebration of his mask after his second vital goal was also an important topic of discussion.

Aubameyang released a Black Panther mask – made famous by the movie Marvel – to celebrate his strike.
