EPL Transfer: Arsenal keen on £69m midfielder, Liverpool want Real Madrid ace, Everton keen on Koulibaly

Koulibaly-Napoli

Arsenal want Guido Rodriguez

Arsenal are interested in signing the Real Betis defensive midfielder Guido Rodriguez this summer.

According to reports, the Gunners are looking to sign a quality partner for Thomas Partey and the 26-year-old has caught their attention with his performances for the Spanish outfit.

Rodriguez has a £69 million release clause in his contract with Real Betis and it will be interesting to see if the Spanish outfit are willing to sell him for a knockdown price this summer.

Arsenal could definitely use more quality in the central midfield and Rodriguez would be a superb signing for them.

Liverpool keen on Nacho

Meanwhile, Liverpool are keeping tabs on the Real Madrid defender Nacho.

The experienced defender will be a free agent in the summer of 2022 and Real Madrid could look to cash in on him this summer.

Liverpool could use some defensive reinforcements after their injury crisis this season and Nacho would be a smart addition to their squad.

The Spaniard can operate as a centre back as well as a right-back and his versatility could be useful during rotations and injury problems.

It will be interesting to see if the Reds can convince Los Blancos to part with the experienced defender this summer.

Ancelotti wants Koulibaly

Everton are thought to be keen on the Napoli defender Kalidou Koulibaly.

Carlo Ancelotti wants to improve his side’s defence at the end of this season and he has identified the Senegalese international as a top target.

Koulibaly is one of the best defenders in the world and he is unlikely to come cheap. It will be interesting to see if Everton are willing to back Ancelotti in the market for the 29-year-old who is valued at £89 million by Napoli.

Ancelotti has worked with the defender during his time as the manager of Napoli and he might be able to convince the player to move to Goodison Park if Everton can agree on a fee with his club.
