Tuesday's Arsenal transfer talk news roundup: Brenner, Shkodran Mustafi, Stefan de Vrij

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Arsenal on Tuesday, November 17.

The summer transfer window has now closed, with Arsenal pulling off one of the standout deals on deadline day.

The Gunners triggered the release clause of Thomas Partey to cap off a relatively busy summer which saw the likes of Willian and Gabriel Magalhaes join too, and attention will now begin to turn to January.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings at the Emirates Stadium.

Tuesday morning's Arsenal transfer talk news roundup:


Arsenal 'priced out of move for Brazilian youngster Brenner'

Sao Paulo are reportedly not fearful of losing Brenner despite the widespread interest in his services.

The 20-year-old has scored 19 times in 39 appearances for his Brazilian side, and a number of clubs are believed to be closely monitoring his performances.

Arsenal have been strongly linked with the attacker, while Juventus, Real Madrid, AC Milan and Ajax have also been credited with an interest in recent weeks.

However, according to Globo Esporte, Sao Paulo are not prepared to sell the Brazilian for anything under his €50m (£44.5m) release clause.

As a result, the report claims that the Gunners are expected to be priced out of a move as they are not prepared to pay that amount for the youngster.

Brenner has scored 17 times in 27 appearances at club level during the current season.



Barcelona eye January move for Arsenal's Shkodran Mustafi?

Barcelona could attempt to make a shock swoop for out-of-favour Arsenal defender Shkodran Mustafi during the January transfer window, according to a report.

The 28-year-old's turbulent time at the Emirates could soon be nearing an end, with Mustafi in the final year of his Arsenal contract and seemingly nowhere close to agreeing an extension.

The centre-back's father recently claimed that Mustafi could seek pastures new after falling out of favour under Mikel Arteta, with David Luiz, Rob Holding and Gabriel Magalhaes all preferred despite promising early signs for Mustafi after Arteta's arrival.

Despite being on the receiving end of plenty of criticism during his time in North London, Diario Sport claim that Barcelona manager Ronald Koeman has earmarked Mustafi as a potential signing.

The report claims that the Barca boss wants to bolster his defensive ranks and Manchester City's Eric Garcia is still his number one target, but the Catalan giants could move for Mustafi if their pursuit of Garcia proves unsuccessful.

Mustafi has scored nine goals in 146 matches in an Arsenal shirt, but the injury-hit Germany international is yet to start a Premier League game for the Gunners this term.
