Arsenal Intensifies Mikel Merino Pursuit Amid Transfer Window Frenzy

Real Sociedad holds firm on €35m valuation as Arsenal prepares new bid for Euro 2024-winning midfielder.

Arsenal's initial €25m offer for Merino was rejected by Real Sociedad.
Merino has agreed personal terms with Arsenal but clubs are yet to finalize a transfer fee.
Real Sociedad aims to retain Merino despite his contract expiring next summer.
Chelsea, Manchester United, and Liverpool are also active in the transfer market with multiple negotiations ongoing.
West Ham, Tottenham, and other Premier League clubs are targeting key signings before the transfer deadline.
