According to the report from football.london, Mikel Arteta’s wish of adding more firepower to his midfield at Arsenal could be granted in January with reports of the Gunners keeping tabs on Everton star Amadou Onana.InformationGuideNigeria

The north Londoners were linked with the Belgian last winter after he settled into life in the Premier League incredibly well following his move from Lille. Aston Villa’s Douglas Luiz and Real Sociedad starlet Martin Zubimendi have both also emerged on Arsenal’s radar.InformationGuideNigeria

Now, despite the club-record signing of Declan Rice in the summer, the Gunners are now showing real interest in Onana ahead of the opening of the January transfer window. According to the MailOnline [via Metro], the versatile midfielder is ‘being watched closely’ by the Premier League leaders.InformationGuideNigeria

Onana cost the Toffees £33million in 2022 and it’s likely that Sean Dyche’s men will demand close to double that figure. Compared to Arsenal legend Patrick Vieira by former Belgium head coach Roberto Martinez, Onana is destined for great things.NYSC Portal

Speaking in October, the midfielder said: “I’m not going to say that it [international duty] is my main source of motivation because I take very seriously the task that I have with Everton, namely, to help the club to survive,” he told Sport Witness.JAMB Result

“But I must admit that this change in atmosphere and finding a team with high quality players changes the mood. Mentally, it does me a lot of good.”

Asked if he would remain at Goodison Park for the entirety of the 2-23/24 season, he said: “That was my goal at the start of the season. But like I said I don’t have a crystal ball.
