Victor Wanyama is generating serious interest from Arsenal, with Arsène Wenger reportedly keen to bring the Kenyan midfielder to the Emirates this summer.
Here are the key takeaways:
Wanyama confirmed that Wenger has expressed interest in signing him, with discussions taking place about a potential move.
The midfielder has made a significant impact at Southampton, building on his successful stint at Celtic and now aiming for a move to a Champions League club like Arsenal.
While focused on Southampton’s push for European football, Wanyama is open to exploring a move, particularly to a club of Arsenal’s stature.
Southampton paid around €14.5 million for Wanyama, so they’ll likely demand a figure close to €30 million if they let him go.
Given his ability in the middle of the park and the interest he’s attracting, Wanyama could be a smart addition for Arsenal as they look to strengthen for next season, particularly with their continued push for more silverware.
