Arsenal transfer news: Viktor Gyokeres clause change as blockbuster deal confirmed

The Gunners are said to have considered a move for former Barcelona star Sergi Roberto. The versatile 32-year-old is without a club after leaving the Nou Camp this summer after a 14-year senior career with the Catalan club.

Arsenal have reportedly reached out to his representatives, and Roberto is intrigued by the prospect of a move to the Premier League. That said, terms are said to have been agreed with Barca who have asked for more time before making any new deal official as they organise their finances.

Arteta's side will face competition from Ajax however, who have a 'genuine' interest as Roberto considers his options.
