After staying on the verge of winning the Premier League, the Arsenal wants to take a step forward this summer, strengthen the project started by Mikel Arteta. For now, the gunners have already tied Kai Havertzof the Chelsea, in exchange for 70 million euros. Arsenal, however, is not going to stop there, far from it. It is very close to closing the arrival of Declan Ricefor more than 100 million euros, and now he has set his sights on 2 footballers who are on the exit ramp of the Manchester City, Julian Alvarez and Kyle Walker.
The big problem with which Arsenal are finding is that both players are also on the agenda of the Newcastle and of the Manchester Uniteda bid that does not interest the gunnerswho have already made it clear what are the maximum amounts that they are willing to pay for each of the footballers.

Julián Álvarez wants to play more
The jewel is Julián Álvarez, the starting center forward of the 2022 world champion Argentina team. spider ahead of Erling Haaland, which has caused his presence in Manchester City to have been testimonial. Pep Guardiola is delighted to have Julián Álvarez as a boost, although he understands that the striker wants to accumulate more minutes in Europe, to the point of considering giving him a start if a large number arrives for him.
Arsenal is willing to pay 60 million euros for Julián Álvarez, an important figure, although insufficient for Manchester City, which is asking for 80 million. Newcastle and Manchester United, for the moment, have only shown an informal interest, so Julián Álvarez, for the moment, will continue to be a Manchester City player.

Walker, a great opportunity
An easier case to solve is that of Kyle Walker, who after 6 seasons at the Etihad Stadium has decided to change the scene. The English winger has lost his place on Guardiola’s board and at the age of 33 wants to try for another team. Looking for a quality, experienced right-back, Arsenal have contacted Manchester City to offer €16m, an interesting figure for a veteran player who ends with Manchester City in just one season.
Arsenal, then, intends to reinforce its squad with two transferable players from Manchester City in exchange for 76 million euros. Now the club’s response is missing citizenwhich is renewing part of the triplet champion squad, with its sights set on achieving six out of six.
