Arsenal readying bids for two Manchester United targets in midfield overhaul

Arsenal could beat Manchester United to two of their midfield targets over the summer transfer window.

It was reported yesterday by the Daily Mail that the Gunners were lining up a £90 million bid for Declan Rice after he played his final game for West Ham United in the Europa League Conference final.

Now, Mikel Arteta and the hierarchy have reignited their pursuit of Moises Caicedo. According to London World, they will table a proposal worth £75 million to acquire the Ecuadorian’s signature.

Brighton and Hove Albion rejected bids from Arsenal in January, as they were keen to keep the 21-year-old until the end of the campaign whilst they sought to secure European football, which they did by finishing sixth in the Premier League.

United could miss out on two sought-after stars

United have been actively monitoring the pair of midfielders, as confirmed by Sky Sports, but it really means nothing unless an offer is thrown the clubs’ way.

Erik ten Hag is seemingly left with his hands tied though, as until there is clarity on the ownership situation, he’s unable to be as active as he’d like on the market this summer.
