Arsenal eyeing five more signings before deadline?

Arsenal could make five more signings during the ongoing transfer window, The Athletic reports.

The Gunners have made just one purchase this summer with left-back Nuno Tavares joining them from Benfica.

However, there is expected to be frantic activity in the coming weeks. They have already agreed a couple of deals.

Anderlecht midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga has already undergone his medical, and he will be announced soon.

They have also reached an agreement with Brighton for Ben White. He will officially sign for the club after July 26.

According to The Athletic, there could be three more additions to the squad with one of them being a back-up goalkeeper.

The club are also eyeing a replacement for right-back Hector Bellerin, who appears certain to leave in the coming weeks.

A creative midfielder remains another priority. They are yet to identify their target, but have been linked with Houssem Aouar again.

Aouar could be available for a reduced fee of around €25m.
