Premier League giants Arsenal are reportedly in talks to sign Paris Saint Germain (PSG) defender Thomas Meunier during this transfer window.
This is according to the publication from the stables of the Daily Mail which claimed that Arsenal want to bolster their squad defensively with a new right-back and PSG star Thomas Meunier is a target.
It was also revealed that PSG want £27m for Thomas Meunier excluding add-ons and the said asking price could rule the Gunners out of the running to sign the Belgian international.
North London giants Arsenal are not the only Premier League club keen to sign Thomas Meunier this summer with rivals Manchester United also interested in him.

The two Premier League clubs want to sign a new right-back this summer and Thomas Meunier is a target for both teams.
First choice Arsenal right-back Hector Bellerin might not be fit for the rest of the season after missing the second half of last season with a serious knee injury and the Gunners want to bring in a cover for him.
Young Arsenal midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles played at right-back for the better part of the second half of last season with mixed results while aging Swiss international right-back Stephan Lichtsteiner has been released after just one season in North London.
