Jamie Vardy is expected to be the next arrival for the Gunners this summer, as Arsene Wenger pursues the player tirelessly.
The Gunners have already completed the signing of Granit Xhaka and according to reports, Jamie Vardy will be the next player to move into the Gunners followed by Riyad Mahrez, with whom Arsenal are set to start talks with.
Mahrez is expected to come to the Emirates Stadium as a partner for Vardy, who is set to head to the Gunners after they triggered the player’s £20m ($28.7m) release clause for the transfer. According to the Sun, the Gunners are shocked at the value of the midfielder’s release clause and are keen to exploit it and bring him to north London. Mahrez is said to closely follow Vardy into the Emirates. Move is sure to turn into a big blow for Claudio Ranieri, who wants to keep the whole squad together as the Foxes get ready to make their debut in the Champions League next season.
Mahrez’s arrival at the Gunners will surely put Theo Walcott future into uncertainty, after a dismal season, having run out of favor at the Emirates.
