Arsenal transfer news: Unai Emery ‘close’ to making Yannick Carrasco his first summer signing from Chinese Super League side Dalian Yifang
Arsenal are in ‘advanced talks’ to sign Yannick Carrasco from the Chinese Super League, according to reports.The Belgium international shocked plenty of supporters last year when, despite playing regularly for Atletico Madrid, he moved to Dalian Yifang.getty3

Yannick Carrasco was one of the hottest talents in Europe at Atletico Madrid

At just 25, the move came as a surprise to many, and fans are even less shocked that the winger no longer wants to ply his trade in the Far East.And according to Gazetta dello Sport journalist Nicolo Shira, Arsenal could be on the verge of completing a deal for the 25-year-old, who has also been courted by Inter Milan.The Gunners were linked with a move back in January, but Unai Emery was put off by the 30m asking price, instead moving for Denis Suarez on a loan deal.Schiras tweet read: #Carrasco wants to return in Europe from Cina and go to #EPL. #Arsenal are in advanced talks to sign him from #DalianYifang.getty3

He was courted by #Gunners last January, but Emery opted to sign Denis Suarez on loan, because chinese asked 30M. #transfers #AFC.Carrasco previously stated there was just one team interested in signing him in January but wouldnt reveal who.“I want to go back to Europe,” Carrasco told Sky Sports.“One team is interested in me but I can’t say which one and in which league.getty3

Unai Emery will have to be savvy in the transfer market

“But hopefully my team in China can help me come back to Europe.”Despite being close to making their first signing, Arsenal will still have the issue of having just 40m to spend in this transfer window.Failure to qualify for the Champions League has affected the north Londoners, but Emery still feels as though the lure of playing for the Gunners is still strong.He said: Maybe. But we are a big team. I think Arsenal is a big name in the football world, and a lot of players want to play here. We are in one process and we need, in this process, to be strong. When we started this season, the idea was to get more competitive, like a team. To be closer to the other teams. And we did that.At the moment it’s not enough to reach our targets. But we’ll continue working in our minds.The transfers, I don’t know for next year. But the club is working to improve and to take all we need to go our way.
