Arsenal Make €12m Bid for Argentine Defender Amid Interest From Inter & Sampdoria

Arsenal are reported to have put a €12m offer on the table for Gremio defender Walter Kannemann, potentially putting them ahead of Serie A sides Inter and Sampdoria in the queue to secure his services.

The Gunners are looking to strengthen their central defensive options in the summer, with Shkodran Mustafi seemingly heading for the exit door after a poor season.

They will do so on a shoestring budget compared to their rivals at the top end of the Premier League, with as little as £40m to spend, and CalcioMercato report that a shopping trip in Brazil may be the solution to that.
