Arsenal are preparing to SPEND BIG to bring in ‘dribbling monster’ Lamine Yamal from Barcelona!

Bringing talented young players up through the ranks and into the first squad is something Arsenal has a long history of doing.

Whether it’s with talented children they discover at other teams like Cesc Fàbregas or Gabriel Martinelli, or with up-and-coming talents from their school like Ethan Nwaneri, Emile Smith Rowe, or Bukayo Saka.

Developing the next generation of superstars rather than simply purchasing them has always been a fundamental tenet of the North Londoners’ methodology.

Not surprisingly, the club is associated with a very interesting adolescent in Brazil. There are some similarities between this child and Barcelona player Lamine Yamal.

Transfer news for Arsenal

According to a recent report from Caught Offside, William Gomes is a talented young player from São Paulo who has drawn interest from a number of teams, including Arsenal.

The report claims that scouts from Arsenal and Chelsea have already visited the 18-year-old to observe him play and have provided “positive feedback on what they’ve seen so far.”
