Arsene Wenger is already looking ahead to the summer transfer window, and reports say he has identified a target for the Gunners.
Ryan Fredericks, the 25-year-old right-back, has caught the eye as a key figure for Fulham’s high-flying promotion chasers, chipping in with seven assists in 41 Championship appearances.
His contract expires at the end of the campaign, and Arsenal have joined West Ham in considering an approach for the soon-to-be free agent, according to The Sun.
Wenger wants to bring a new right-back to the Emirates to provide cover for Hector Bellerin, while also potentially stepping up to replace Bellerin should the Spain full-back leave this summer, with Barcelona known admirers of the 23-year-old.
