Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta and sporting director Andrea Berta would be able to get a deal done with West Ham United for Aaron Wan-Bissaka for just \u00a325million, according to a reliable report.<\/p>\n

On July 6, it emerged that Arsenal are exploring a move for former Manchester United right-back Wan-Bissaka<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ben White could be on his way out of the Emirates Stadium this summer, and the Gunners are looking at potential replacements.<\/p>\n

TEAMtalk reported that West Ham<\/a> are ready to sell the right-back, following their relegation from the Premier League.<\/p>\n

The reliable transfer news outlet stated: \u2018Still only 28, Wan-Bissaka remains widely regarded as one of the Premier League\u2019s strongest one-on-one defenders and his defensive qualities are understood to appeal to a number of Arsenal\u2019s<\/a> recruitment staff.<\/p>\n

\u2018Sources indicate there is a belief within the club that his profile could complement Timber well, offering Arteta another reliable defensive option capable of handling elite wide players.\u2019<\/p>\n

West Ham want \u00a325m for Aaron Wan-Bissaka<\/p>\n

The Athletic<\/a> has now brought an update on the future of the defender, who played for DR Congo at the ongoing 2026 World Cup.<\/p>\n

The trusted publication has claimed that West Ham are ready to cash in on the 28-year-old former Crystal Palace star for just \u00a325million.<\/p>\n

The report has noted: \u2018West Ham United are open to selling Aaron Wan-Bissaka and will set an asking price of \u00a325million. The Championship side are yet to receive any enquiries for the 28-year-old.<\/p>\n

\u2018Wan-Bissaka, whose contract expires in the summer of 2031, has made 65 appearances across all competitions since joining from Manchester United for \u00a315m in August 2024.\u2019<\/p>\n

Arsenal face\u00a0Bruno Guimaraes roadblock<\/p>\n

While Arsenal will be encouraged to learn about West Ham\u2019s stance on Wan-Bissaka, the Gunners have an uphill task to convince Newcastle United to sell Bruno Guimaraes.<\/p>\n

Arsenal want to sign Guimaraes from Newcastle<\/a> in the summer transfer window and have had an initial offer for the Brazil international midfielder already turned down.<\/p>\n

Newcastle have told Anthony Gordon to Barcelona and Sandro Tonali to Tottenham Hotspur, and, according to Football Insider journalist Pete O\u2019Rourke, the Magpies are not going to sell Guimaraes, too.<\/p>\n

O\u2019Rourke said: \u201cIt\u2019s a difficult situation for Newcastle because they don\u2019t want to lose Bruno Guimaraes.<\/p>\n

\u201cEspecially after Anthony Gordon completed his move to\u00a0Barcelona, and Sandro Tonali is close to joining\u00a0Tottenham, they don\u2019t want to lose any more of their best players.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo lose three key players like that in the same transfer window would take a lot to recover from for Newcastle and would put them in a difficult position.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were never going to sell Bruno at \u00a355 million or whatever that it was talked about as well. I think they\u2019ll be doing everything they can to try and keep hold of the Brazil international.<\/p>\n

\u201cNewcastle right now are probably trying to batten down the hatches and make sure that no more key players leave the club.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs I said, to lose three players of the quality of Gordon, Tonali and possibly Bruno would be huge loss for the club and would leave them with big voids to fill.\u201d<\/p>\n
