Bruno Guimaraes also appears increasingly close to becoming the next marquee arrival at the Emirates Stadium. According to the Daily Mail, Aston Villa are braced for a fresh bid from Arsenal for England defender Ezri Konsa. The Midlands club reportedly value Konsa at around £60 million, although Arsenal will hope to negotiate a significantly lower fee. That setback has forced Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to prioritise the signing of another top-class centre-back. The Gunners are already expected to invest around £75m in Bruno Guimaraes, who belongs to a similar age bracket.
