Yannick Carrasco and Christopher Nkunku at Arsenal: Latest news from Raul Sanllehi's two main goals



[ad_1]

Denis Suarez is expected to become the first rookie of the month for Arsenal and the Gunners hope to add an extra option before the transfer window closes.

The list of candidates for the selection of coach Raul Sanllehi is currently set at 23h: winger Dalian Yifang Yannick Carrasco and midfielder Paris Saint-Germain Christopher Nkunku.

At most, one of these could happen this month, although it should remain a long-term target for gunners in the years to come.

The two could not come on loan with an option for a permanent transfer in the summer, which could be difficult to sell for their current clubs.

Yannick Carrasco

The former Atletico Madrid winger had been offered to Arsenal earlier in the transfer window but was not considered a priority signature despite Carrasco's eagerness to return to Europe.

Instead Arsenal has focused on their pursuit of Ivan Perisic but found convincing Inter Milan to send a winger on loan to be a tough sell. It seems very unlikely that the Croatian arrives at Emirates Stadium this month. Similarly, the hopes of finding an agreement for the star of Dalian Yifang now seem to faint.

After a little over 36 hours remaining, Carrasco's agent warned Arsenal – and all other interested parties – the conveners: with the current Carrasco club. "

The prevarication of Arsenal has also opened the door to AC Milan, which should offer real competition in the race for Carrasco in the final hours of the window.

At the dawn of January 31, it seemed unlikely that the Belgian would be an Arsenal player 24 hours later, but Carrasco would like to join the club, which likes him himself. Where there is a will, there could simply be a way.

Christopher Nkunku

Nkunku, 21, hopes to move to Arsenal today, although much depends on the activities of PSG.

His former coach, Unai Emery, is an admirer of Nkunku and has named him to the squad for 34 of 38 Ligue 1 games last season, giving six midfielders a dynamic start. Under Thomas Tuchel, the opportunities were harder to find for the younger ones.

As such, PSG could consider replacing him, especially since he is able to recruit another midfielder to accompany his January addition to Leandro Paredes. Everton's presenter, Idrissa Gueye, is part of their goals. They were also badociated with Abdoulaye Doucoure of Watford.

Even in this case, Arsenal must convince PSG to grant Nkunku an initial loan agreement including an option to buy it in the summer rather than a compulsory purchase clause.
