Arsenal’s transfer focus seems to be shifting away from Fluminense midfielder André, as they are increasingly prioritizing the signing of Douglas Luiz from Aston Villa. Despite closely monitoring André for some time, it appears that Arsenal have chosen to explore other options to strengthen their midfield.
André, who plays for Fluminense, has drawn interest from several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal and Liverpool, due to his impressive performances in Brazil. Arsenal has reportedly scouted him extensively, even sending representatives to the Copa Libertadores final to watch him play.
However, Arsenal’s decision to prioritize Douglas Luiz over André remains somewhat unclear. Douglas Luiz is currently with Aston Villa, and securing his transfer may prove more challenging, as Villa is likely to demand a higher fee, possibly exceeding the €40million that Fluminense seeks for André.
Despite this, it seems that Arsenal have chosen to focus its efforts on the Aston Villa midfielder Douglas Luiz, potentially paving the way for André to seek opportunities elsewhere.
