Arsenal have reportedly 'agreed personal terms' with Leicester City’s 16-year-old talent Jeremy Monga, marking a significant step toward their first summer signing. This development comes as the Gunners, fresh off their Premier League title triumph, look to bolster their squad after a strong season.
Arsenal's successful run to the Champions League final, despite a narrow loss to Paris Saint-Germain, has expanded their transfer budget, allowing them to pursue new talent ahead of the June 15 transfer window. Monga, who made 30 appearances for a relegated Leicester City side, is highly regarded and has attracted interest from multiple top clubs, both in England and Europe.
Journalist Ben Jacobs reports that Arsenal is not alone in their pursuit; Leicester has received up to eight formal inquiries for Monga. The potential transfer fee is expected to exceed £10 million, with a tribunal possibly needed to finalize the amount.
Italian journalist Nicolo Schira confirms that Monga has agreed to personal terms with Arsenal as negotiations with Leicester continue. Fabrizio Romano outlines that while a top winger is a priority for Arsenal, Monga may not be their primary signing in that role, as the club aims for at least three new additions this summer.
