Arsenal Transfer News: Alessandro Florenzi Rumours, Nacho Monreal Discusses Move

Barcelona’s interest in Roma’s Alessandro Florenzi will reportedly push Arsenal to take a step back from a potential transfer.

That’s according to talkSPORT (h/t Football Italia) which noted that the Gunners do not fancy going up against the La Liga giants in the transfer market. The piece went as far as to suggest that the Premier League outfit are “intimidated” by the prospect of Barcelona’s interest in Florenzi, who has previously admitted he is “flattered” to be linked with the European champions, via Corriere dello Sport (h/t Football Italia).

Florenzi, who is an adaptable footballer, would be a brilliant pickup for either side.
