Arsenal are still yet to add a new player to their squad this summer.

A Euro 2024 star may have indirectly dropped a hint that he is signing for Arsenal this summer.

The Gunners have had a quiet summer so far in terms of incomings, with only one player signing for the first team.

The player in question is goalkeeper David Raya, with Arsenal activating the option to sign him on a permanent deal from Brentford after a successful loan spell last season.

Fellow goalkeepers Lucas Nygaard and Tommy Setford have also signed for the club and will initially join up with the youth team.

Meanwhile, Arsenal have been heavily linked with moves for Ivan Toney and Viktor Gyokeres as Mikel Arteta looks to build on last season’s Premier League title challenge which ran until the final day.

They are also close to signing Riccardo Calafiori, with the Italy star due for a medical before completing his move from Bologna. The fee Arsenal will pay is reportedly set at £42 million.

But another player could have signalled his intent to move to north London this summer.

Real Sociedad star Mikel Merino – who was in Spain’s Euro 2024-winning squad – has been linked with a move to Arsenal for a number of transfer windows.

The midfielder, who has Premier League experience with Newcastle, reportedly has a release clause of just £21 million, according to Spanish outlet SPORT.

And his agency has added more fuel to the rumours by following Arsenal on their official Instagram account.

Before Arsenal fans get too excited, though, the agency also follows a number of other English clubs on the platform, including Manchester United and Liverpool.

Whether the Arsenal follow is simply a coincidence, therefore, is unclear as of yet – but the Gunners are said to be leading Barcelona in the race to sign Merino this summer as Arteta looks to bolster his midfield.
