Arsenal is preparing a move in the midfield. Sources indicate that the Gunners are looking to secure the signing of Lucien Agoume, a 23-year-old midfielder from Sevilla, during the winter transfer window.

This interest reflects the urgency to reinforce that area of the team, especially considering potential departures or performance drops.

Arsenal views Agoume as a future solution

Under contract with Sevilla and with experience in La Liga, Lucien Agoume has become a real alternative for Arsenal. He is a player developed in France (Sochaux) who was signed by Inter in 2019 but ultimately found his place in Sevilla after a loan that later turned into a permanent transfer.

The player featured in almost all league matches last season, contributing with a goal and several assists. His defensive ability, ball recovery, and tactical reading have been highlighted.

Sevilla ready to negotiate

Sevilla currently holds a significant part of Agoume's rights, but not the entirety. Last summer, they showed a willingness to acquire a larger percentage to negotiate more freely.

The midfielder has a release clause estimated at around €40 million, although reports suggest that Sevilla might accept lower offers if the player wishes to make a move soon.

Why does Arsenal need him now?

Arsenal faces uncertainty in midfield. Thomas Partey's contract expires soon, and his continuity is not guaranteed. Arsenal has already signed players like Martin Zubimendi and Christian Nørgaard, but both offer a different profile compared to what Agoume could provide: more defensive focus, younger age, and room for progression.

Moreover, competition is increasing, with other British clubs being linked with Agoume. This forces Arsenal to act decisively if they want to seize the opportunity.

Cost, opportunity, and timing

The moment seems ripe for negotiation. Sevilla is interested in securing a higher percentage of Agoume's rights to maximize a future sale.

If Arsenal submits a solid offer, they could sign a player on a long contract, with good adaptation skills, fitting the demanding physical and tactical styles of the Premier League. The deal would make sense in the short term (rotation, squad depth) and in the medium term (growth, potential value).

Arsenal is presented with an option that could be very profitable: Lucien Agoume embodies a modern profile of midfielder capable of fulfilling multiple roles. Despite not being a starter in Sevilla yet, his potential is catching attention.

If the London club acts swiftly in the winter market, they could get ahead of rivals and reinforce the midfield with freshness, strength, and future vision. The name of Agoume stands out: for Arsenal, it will be crucial to decide whether to sign him now or let him slip away.
