Arsenal is interested in signing Joao Cancelo from Manchester City, and it seems like there's a good chance this deal could happen.
Arsenal wants to strengthen their squad after finishing second to Manchester City, and Mikel Arteta sees Cancelo as a player who can make a difference in the starting lineup. According to Fabrizio Romano, there have been talks and contact between the two clubs.
"For Cancelo, yes, they are interested. They had some contact, and they have very good relationship with these agents. So there was a conversation over the possibility to sign Cancelo," Romano said.
Despite being highly praised by Pep Guardiola for his incredible quality, Manchester City is looking to move Cancelo on, even though he has had several good seasons with the club. Arsenal would surely be thrilled to have Cancelo in their squad. He is a skilled player with experience in winning major trophies.
Cancelo seems to be a good fit for Mikel Arteta's style of play at Arsenal. He can contribute both in attack and defense, and he's versatile enough to adapt to different positions when needed.
Considering the past reluctance of Manchester City to sell their players to Arsenal, this transfer might not be straightforward. However, since Cancelo is on his way out and if Arsenal is willing to meet the asking price, a deal could potentially be reached.
