Arsenal is looking for a new signing in LaLiga.

Arsenal has started monitoring central defender Kike Salas to strengthen their defense for the second part of the season. The upcoming Arsenal's transfer market will focus on enhancing their rotation.

The board of the London-based club sent scouts to Cornellà-El Prat to witness the performance of the Sevilla player in the league match against Espanyol, a move that has also alerted the Premier League's Fulham.

Arsenal's pursuit of Kike Salas and Sevilla's financial stance

The 24-year-old defender joined Sevilla's first team in January 2023 and has a contract commitment until June 2029. The Spanish U-21 international, capped 4 times, is valued at €14.00 million on Transfermarkt, being a regular in Luis García Plaza's line-ups.

Due to the lengthy contract, the Andalusian board is not under financial pressure to sell the player. Therefore, Sevilla will demand a figure above his market value to authorize any negotiation with Arsenal in the upcoming transfer windows.

The judicial inquiry affecting Arsenal's bid for the center-back

Despite the technical interest in the Spanish defender, any formal proposal from Arsenal is contingent on the resolution of the ongoing judicial investigation concerning his alleged involvement in illegal betting. While the player's representation is hopeful for a favorable outcome, Premier League management prefers not to make financial offers until the case is closed.

Simultaneously, Arsenal's scouts in Spain compiled reports on 24-year-old midfielder Lucien Agoumé. The French midfielder, acquired for €8 million by Sevilla, presents a more manageable transfer for the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán hierarchy.

Arsenal's analytics departments will continue assessing the defender's performances in LaLiga during the months of October and November 2026. Arsenal will await the resolution of Kike Salas's legal matters before engaging in formal negotiations with Sevilla for the January 2027 transfer window.
