Arsenal eye marquee move for “unsettled” PSG star

Arsenal are watching closely.

Arsenal have been placed on alert after reports emerged suggesting that one of Europe’s most devastating attackers is growing increasingly unhappy at his current club.

The Gunners had a fantastic summer transfer window. They have signed almost all the players that Mikel Arteta wanted. Now, they are looking to repeat the same in January.

The Arsenal board are ready to back Mikel Arteta, who is striving to end the Premier League title drought at the Emirates. Now, they are eyeing a marquee signing.

According to French outlet Canal+, there is growing “unease” around Ousmane Dembele at Paris Saint-Germain.

The report claims the attacker feels “unsettled” by how he is being used under head coach Luis Enrique. Even when cleared to play, Dembele has not been a guaranteed starter.

The France international reportedly believes he is ready to start matches consistently. But Enrique remains cautious, preferring to manage his workload and reintroduce him gradually.

That situation has caught the attention of Arsenal. The north London club have long admired the former Barcelona forward.

The report describes the Gunners as a “perfect fit” should Dembele decide to push for a shock move in 2026. However, any move would be far from straightforward for the Gunners.

With Dembele tied to PSG until June 2028, the French champions remain in a strong negotiating position. And, they would demand a substantial fee before even considering a sale.

For now, Arsenal are watching closely. This situation of Ousmane Dembele could develop rapidly if tensions in Paris continue to grow.
