Arsenal's pace in the summer transfer window has been blistering, not only bringing in Dylan Rice and Xaviers, but according to authoritative media outlet The Athletic, they have quietly launched their pursuit of Ajax center-back Zulian Damba. The 22-year-old Dutch international was the United manager Ten Haag's favorite, last year Ten Haag coaching Manchester United had tried to buy, but Zulian Damba then did not have the intention of transfer, this time the Arsenal can successfully cut off the beard into a challenge.
According to The Athletic, Arsenal have made an offer worth £30 million (about HK$300 million), but it was rejected by Ajax. Nonetheless, the two clubs are still in active negotiations and Arsenal are confident of reaching an agreement. Zulian Damba, who can play both right back and right center back, fits Arsenal's reinforcement needs, so the club is determined to win this deal.
Transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has also confirmed Arsenal's interest in Zulian Damba and says that if the deal ultimately falls through, the Arsenal will turn to RB Leipzig's 23-year-old French center back Schmane, who also has the ability to play as a right back and right center back.
