Arsenal Pursuing Everton Midfielder Amadou Onana as Potential Title-Chasing Addition. Arsenal is reportedly exploring the possibility of signing Everton midfielder Amadou Onana.  The Toffees are said to be seeking a fee of around £50 million for the Belgian international, but their precarious financial situation may prompt them to consider a sale in the coming weeks.

With Arsenal aiming to strengthen their squad for the second half of the Premier League campaign, their recent dip in form has highlighted the need for reinforcements. Mikel Arteta’s team has struggled with just one win in their last seven matches across all competitions.

Questions have arisen regarding the manager’s available options, and the January transfer window offers a glimmer of hope. In response to transfer queries, Arteta stated, “What I beg from the supporters is that they are behind the team like they have been in difficult moments… Stick behind the ones that we have. They are incredibly good… Stick by them.”

While it remаins to be seen whether Arsenal can secure the players who could make a difference in the Premier League title race, other priority positions are starting to emerge. Journalist Sacha Tavolieri reports that Arsenal has entered “intensive” talks with Everton for Onana’s signature. However, it’s worth noting that Manchester United is also reportedly interested in the midfielder.

For Arsenal, pursuing Onana could signify a significant change in their midfield department. He could be an ideal partner for Declan Rice, pushing him further up the pitch and potentially impacting the role of Kai Havertz.
