Arsenal are reportedly preparing a €35 million bid to secure the services of Bilal El Khannouss from Leicester City this summer.
According to Fichajes, the 20-year-old Moroccan international has impressed with his technical quality and composure, attracting serious interest from Mikel Arteta’s side.
With Arsenal narrowly missing out on the Premier League title this season, strengthening the squad remains a priority. El Khannouss could be a smart long-term investment, offering flair and vision in the final third—an area the Gunners have lacked consistency in.
El Khannouss Could See Arsenal as a Career-Defining Move
Having shone in the Championship, El Khannouss might be reluctant to remain outside the Premier League. A move to the Emirates would represent a significant step up, providing him with Champions League exposure and a chance to fight for silverware.
Arsenal have a track record of developing young talents like Bukayo Saka and William Saliba, which could be enticing for the Moroccan playmaker.
Arsenal Planning More Additions
Beyond midfield reinforcements, Arsenal are also targeting a new striker, with names like Viktor Gyokeres linked. The club is clearly focused on bridging the gap to Manchester City and mounting a stronger title challenge next season.
If El Khannouss settles quickly, this €35 million deal could prove to be a bargain in the long run.
