Arsenal nearing deal for Leganes forward?

Arsenal near the signing Leganes forward Youssef En-Nesyri in an £8.8m deal, according to a report.

Arsenal are reportedly closing in on a swoop for Leganes forward Youssef En-Nesyri.

The 22-year-old joined Leganes from Malaga in last summer's transfer window and scored 11 times in 34 appearances for Los Pepineros during the 2018-19 campaign.

According to Moroccan newspaper Assahifa Al Ousbouia, El-Nesyri's form last season has led to a number of clubs expressing an interest. Arsenal, though, are said to be nearing an £8.8m deal for the 21-time Morocco international.

Real Betis have also been linked with a swoop for the centre-forward, who struck five league goals for Malaga ahead of a switch to Leganes ahead of the 2018-19 season.

Arsenal only reportedly have around £40m to spend on new signings this summer. However, head coach Unai Emery could look to raise his budget by selling some big-name players.
