Arsenal have made a shock offer to sign Manchester City forward Savinho on loan. The Gunners are looking to strengthen their attack, with some doubts over the future of Gabriel Martinelli.

What happened?

Arsenal held talks with Manchester City over a potential move for Savinho, but the proposal was instantly rejected by City, who will only consider permanent offers to let the forward leave.

Why it matters for Arsenal

The north Londoners have been looking at left-sided attacking options, with Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers emerging as a key target in recent weeks. Rogers fits the bill, with the Englishman having the added bonus of being able to operate in the No.10 role too.

What comes next?

Arsenal are making progress over a move to sign Morgan Rogers, with the Gunners wanting to add a starting left-winger.
