Raphael Guerreiro

According to reports from Transfer Market Web, Arsenal are in talks with Lorient to sign Liverpool transfer target Raphael Guerreiro.

The 22-year-old left-back offers unusual netting prowess, bagging ten goals in 95 league outings for the French club – including three Ligue 1 strikes so far this season.

With his contract on the verge of entering its final twelve months, the 22-year-old is attracting plenty of interest from the Premier League ahead of the summer transfer window.

Arsenal and Liverpool were both linked with the Portugal international in March and Transfer Market Web have documented their transfer interest once again, whilst mooting PSG as rival suitors.

But according to the Italian publication, Arsenal are leading the race to sign Guerreiro and are already in talks with Lorient over a potential summer move.

The Gunners are targeting the former Caen youngster as a potential replacement for Kieran Gibbs and Nacho Monreal, neither of whom have fully convinced as the club’s long-term left-back.
