Arsenal Transfer News: Paul Pogba Link Continues, Godfred Donsah Rumours Emerge
Arsenal continue to be linked with Juventus star Paul Pogba, with reports suggesting the Gunners are lining up a summer move for the Frenchman.
According toย CalcioMercato.comย (h/t Jamie Sandersonย ofย Metro), Arsenal are prepared to "pay any amount" to sign the 21-year-old midfielder, and ยฃ80 million is the currently rumoured figure.
Since joining Juve from Manchester United in 2012, Pogba has become arguably the brightest talent in football, with his physicality, passing ability and acumen both in attack and defence making him a top-class central midfielder.

He is being linked with a swathe of Europe's top clubsโincluding Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Unitedโand Bleacher Report UK's Matteo Bonetti believes the Serie A outfit will indeed cash in on him this summer:
If that is the case, the race for Pogba's signature will be the story of the summer transfer window, and Sanderson suggests Arsenal are in a good position to win said contest.
In recent years, the Gunners have seemingly loosened their purse strings with the signings of Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez, but despite the continuing links, the signing of Pogba is surely out of reach for Wenger.
Real, Chelsea, Manchester City and Unitedโwho are all linked with Pogba, per the Express' Ben Jeffersonโall have significantly greater financial clout than Arsenal, and they will be able to offer Juve and their star player more attractive financial packages.
Equally, the Gunners may not even be in the Champions League next season, as they are currently locked in a fierce battle for a top-four Premier League spot which is by no means guaranteed. ย
L'Equipeย recently speculated on whether the Premier League's new television dealโworth over ยฃ5 billion per PA Sport (h/t ESPN FC)โwould see English clubs attract the world's best players, with Pogba mocked up in an Arsenal shirt, per France-based football writer Matt Spiro:
Certainly the France international would improve the Gunners hugely as a long-needed marshalย in the middle of the park, but it seems an unlikely summer transfer with so many other massive clubs interested in Pogba.
Another central midfielder who is a more realistic target for Arsenal isย Cagliari's Godfred Donsah, and theย Ghanaian is reportedly being targeted by the Gunners, per theย London Evening Standard'sย Tom Collomosse.ย
At just 18 years old, Donsah has shown enormous potential, and is being tracked by Tottenham and Manchester City also.

He has appeared 15 times in Serie A this season and has netted twice while providing one assist, per WhoScored.com.
Donsah is talented on the ball and provides good link-up play for those around him. He could also improve drastically under Wenger's tutelage.ย
Arsenal need added strength in the centre of the parkโan area in which they have been arguably lacking since the days of Patrick Vieiraโand with a Pogba deal unlikely, Donsah could be an exciting alternative.
