Arsenal plot winter move for La Liga defender

08 October 2014 - 13:07

Arsenal are reportedly set to make a January move for Atletico Bilbao defender Aymeric Laporte.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Man Utd serious about signing Rafael Leao
  • The Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is well aware of the club's defensive frailties at the start of the season, and is now keen on signing up a top-class defender in the next transfer window.

    According to The Metro, the North London club have been linked with a £25m switch for Laporte in January.

    The report adds that the 20-year-old is considered the perfect fit to replace club captain Per Mertesacker on a long-term basis.
