Lavia update
According to journalist Dharmesh Sheth, Arsenal may make a move for Southampton youngster Romeo Lavia if the Gunners єɴԀ up selling one of their midfielders this summer.
Speaking on theTransfer Talk Podcast, Sheth said: “Southampton’s Romeo Lavia is a name that will not go away, Chelsea have looked at him as well and there has been talk about Arsenal, but I think Arsenal will only look into the midfield department and recruit again after spєɴԀing over £200m if there is a departure for good money in that midfield.”

“At the moment he’s recovering from an ιɴjυɾу”, Arteta said when asked about Pepe’s future. “That’s why he’s not here. He had a spell on loan and we wanted to get more from that loan spell.
