Arsenal identifies replacement for Partey in Spanish league

It’s now crystal clear that midfielder Thomas Partey will leave Arsenal this summer, and signing just Martin Zubimendi won’t be enough for the Gunners—they’re aiming to bolster their midfield to the fullest.

Details: According to the Daily Mail, the London club is targeting Sevilla midfielder Lucien Agoumé as Partey’s replacement. It remains unknown what fee Andalusia will demand for the 23-year-old French international, but he’s already being compared to N’Golo Kanté for his ball-winning ability and reliability in the holding role.

Reminder: Arsenal faces major issues in the striker position, and many experts are urging the club to address this problem decisively. Among the candidates the Gunners are considering are Benjamin Šeško from RB Leipzig and Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting.
