Arsenal become favourites to sign the new Paul Pogba who has the same agents as William Saliba

Arsenal are expected to be on the market for new signings in 2025.

The Gunners, in many people’s eyes, were guaranteed to challenge for the Premier League ti🌳tle again, and they are still in the mix. But, things haven’t fully gone to plan.

Arsenal have dropped points in eight of their first 16 Premier League games this season. They are now six points behind league leaders Liverpool, who have played 🐭a game fewer.

Irrespective of what happens in the next few months, Arsenal will have to improve their squad, and they have now been l𓆏inked with a move to sign an exciting midfielder.

Arsenal are eyeing a move to sign Lucien Agoume

Arsenal will have a problem to addres🐬s in midfield in 2025.

Thomas Partey and J💯orginho will both be available on a freꦏe transfer in July. Arsenal do have an option to extend the latter’s deal by another 12 months, but it’s unclear if they will exercise that.

Arsenal will definitely be on the market for a new midfielder in one of the next two windows, and Lucien Agoume is a target for Mikel Arteta.

That’s according to , who claim that Arsenal areဣ eyeing a move to sign the Sevilla star 🅷as a potential replacement for Partey.

Other top clubs including 🐟Barcelona are said to be interested in the 22-year-old, but the report claims that Arsenal are ahead of everyone else in the race to land him – the player favours a move to the Premier League tꦡoo.

Sevilla, for their part, are in a very strong position. Agoume only joined them in th🐽e summer of 202⛄4 and his contract does not expire until 2028. He cost them just €4 million – it remains to be seen how much they will demand for him in 2025.

Agoume is represented by ND Sports Management, who are also the agents of William Saliba. That could potentially help Arsenal𒁃 in negotiations.

Who is Arsenal target Lucien Agoume?

Agoume is a 22-year-old Cameroon-born French midfielder who plays his 🐽football for Sevilla.

Naturally a defensive midfielder, he can play further up the pitch as well. His ‘physicality, versatility and technical skill’ have led to people comparing him to Paul Pogba, Football Transfers claim.

Previously a title-winner with Inter Milan🅠, Agoume has become a regular at Sevilla n🎃ow. He has a bright future ahead of him and has the potential to play for a huge club one day.

Arsenal will nee🐻d a top-quality replacement for Partey if he leaves in 2025. Agoume may noꦬt be ready for such a big role yet, but he is definitely one to keep an eye on for the future.
