Chelsea to target Carlos Baleba if Enzo Fernandez leaves?

The Brazilian has been a key player for the Russian giants, but he is expected to head for a bigger challenge after the World Cup.

Henrique is expected to board the plane to North America this summer and has his sights on joining the Gunners thereafter.

In an interview with Flashscore, he said: "I really like Arsenal and the way they play. They are very aggressive and they play a lot down the left and right."

Henrique added that he has already spoken with Arsenal duo Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Magalhaes over the playing style.

The former Botafogo man admitted that he is eager to work under manager Mikel Arteta as he is a big admirer of the Spanish tactician.

Henrique has also talked about his admiration for Manchester City in the past. It remains to be seen whether either of those clubs make a move.
