Arsenal are reportedly set to make a move on Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga for a loan deal as the Premier League leaders continue to revamp their squad in their title hunt.
Camavinga, 20, has already established himself as one of the best midfielders in world football despite his tender age.
Last season, he was integral for Carlo Ancelotti’s side as they won the Champions League and La Liga title.
According to Standard.co.uk, Arsenal are open to signing Camavinga on loan to help bolster their squad for the remainder of the season.

It remains to be seen whether Real Madrid will agree to a loan move, although Camavinga has struggle for minutes at the Santiago Bernabeu this season.
Tall order
On social media, fans reacted to the Camavinga transfer rumours with varying reactions.
Sections of fans felt it was a tall order since Real Madrid’s midfield as ageing as the likes of Toni Kroos and Luka Modric are well in their thirties.
Others felt Camavinga would be a great addition to Arsenal, but his signature would not help him personally as he would likely also struggle for minutes at the Emirates.

“The player has struggled for minutes “ He’d struggle for minutes with us. Possibly be sub appearances and europa league. (disregarding any injuries ) Probably play similar minutes staying at Madrid.”.
