Meanwhile, the Gunners are unlikely to sign a Bayern Munich attacker this summer. Elsewhere, AS Roma are interested in Albert Sambi Lokonga.
On that note, here’s a look at the key Arsenal transfer stories as on August 28, 2022:
Arsenal unlikely to sign Leroy Sane this summer
Arsenal are unlikely to sign Leroy Sane this summer, according to journalist Dean Jones. The German forward has been linked with a move away from Bayern Munich this year following the arrival of Sadio Mane. The Gunners are among the clubs tracking him with interest.
Speaking to Give Me Sport as relayed by This is Futbol, Jones said that a move could happen in the near future but appears unlikely this summer.
The north London side remain in the market for a replacement for Nicolas Pepe, who joined Nice on loan this summer.
AS Roma interested in Albert Sambi Lokonga
AS Roma are interested in Albert Sambi Lokonga, according to The Daily Express. The Belgian joined Arsenal last summer but has been in and out of the starting XI since then. The Serie A giants are eager to sign a new midfielder following an injury to Georginio Wijnaldum.
Mourinho has his eyes on Lokonga and wants to sign the player before the end of the summer. However, the Gunners have no intention of letting him go, as they consider him to be a future star.

He added:
The Spanish manager was also full of praise for his captain Odegaard.
He continued:
Arsenal are ahead of second-placed Manchester City (10) by two points after four games.
