Arsenal Eyes Ollie Watkins Amid Transfer Rumors

Arsenal is considering a move for Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins if negotiations for RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko or Sporting CP's Viktor Gyökeres fail to materialize. The Gunners are keen on securing a striker following previous setbacks.

Key Details

The 29-year-old Watkins, who received a £40 million bid from Arsenal in January, has become a prime target. Despite Villa's rejection then, Arsenal sees Watkins as a valuable addition after his impressive performance with 17 goals and 14 assists in 54 appearances.

Interest from Other Clubs

Meanwhile, Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Tottenham are monitoring Bournemouth forward Antoine Semenyo. However, Bournemouth's high valuation of £70 million may deter these clubs from pursuing the winger.

Other Transfer Rumors

Other transfer speculations include Chelsea's João Félix attracting interest from Saudi clubs, Wolverhampton Wanderers eyeing USMNT's Yunus Musah, and Brighton rejecting Newcastle's offer for João Pedro.
