ARSENAL could try to sign Rodrygo or Anthony Gordon this summer, according to reports.
But first they will have to offload a wide player to make space for a new arrival.

Mikel Arteta has promised a big summer with several stars expected to follow Kepa Arrizabalaga through the door.
Martin Zubimendi and Christian Norgaard are set to replace Jorginho and Thomas Partey, while improving the attack remains a key priority.
Real Madrid star Rodrygo has been linked all summer while the Gunners have their eye on Anthony Gordon, according to The Athletic.
But transfer guru David Ornstein revealed Arsenal will only make a move for one of them if they first offload a left winger.
Ornstein told The Athletic FC Podcast: “They’ve always wanted to strengthen on the left wing, but they’ve got Gabriel Martinelli, a very fine player, there already.
“If he were to leave, then you can see them bringing in a top left-sided winger. If he’s not to leave, then I don’t think so.
“We’ve talked and reported on Rodrygo and Anthony Gordon – I think that’s if Martinelli leaves.
“I don’t necessarily think that’s if he were to stay.”

SunSport understands Leandro Trossard is more likely to depart the Emirates than Gabriel Martinelli.
Trossard, 30, is out of contract next summer with Martinelli tied down until 2027.
