Arsene Wenger is looking add a cover to his depleted defensive unit ahead of the 2016-17 Premier League season. The Gunners face a tough clash with Liverpool on August 14 and Wenger is missing several key players ahead of the new season opening day clash.
Arsenal will be without Laurent Koscielny and Per Mertesacker, with the later sidelined until next year.
Gabriel Paulista is likely to take the leading role against the Reds in the absence of the pair but the options to partner him are limited.
New signing Rob Holding has no Premier League experience which means either of Calum Chambers (out of favour) and Nacho Monreal (a left-back) will have to partner Gabriel at the heart of defence.
