Arsenal 'pushing for third Man City signing' and other transfer rumours

Arsenal are reportedly interested in bringing Manchester City youngster Kian Breckin to the Emirates Stadium.

Mikel Arteta is no stranger to raiding his former club for signings having bought Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko to North London in the summer. According to The Sun, Breckin is the latest target on his radar after impressing for the Blues' U21s in the Premier League 2.

The 19-year-old central midfielder has made 21 appearances for the EDS this campaign, scoring seven goals and grabbing four assists in that time. Such form means that the Gunners are not the only side interested in Breckin.
