Arsenal are among clubs tracking Sporting Lisbon's Ousmane Diomande who is reportedly eager for a Premier League move.
According to CaughtOffside, the Gunners along with fellow league rivals Manchester City and Newcastle, are monitoring the situation of the Sporting defender.
The 19-year-old highly talented prospect has garnered attention from across Europe, with clubs from other major leagues also keeping a close eye on his development.
However, the Portuguese side expected to demand the full payment of his £68 million release clause if they are to consider letting him go.
With a contract running until 2027, Lisbon faces no immediate pressure to sell the Ivorian ace, even though he finds the allure of the Premier League tempting.
As of now, Mikel Arteta's primary focus in defense is on securing Ajax center-back Jurrien Timber. Diomande could potentially come into consideration if the Timber deal falls through.
