Arsenal have always been eager to sign young and promising talents at the earliest and have reportedly set their eyes on Chelsea Under-21 defender Ola Aina.

The 19 year old’s contract with Chelsea will expire by the end of this season and apparently he has turned down a proposal to extend his contract, which

has alerted top premier league clubs, including Arsenal, who are hoping for a free transfer at the end of the season.

The young defender was actually demoted from Chelsea’s first team to the under-21’s team after he refused to sign a deal to extend his contract.

Wenger is believed to let go Jenkinson and Debuchy soon, which leaves him with Bellerin as the sole player in the right-back position.

If Ola Aina is brought into the Gunners squad, then he will be used to occupy Debuche’s position.

Debuchy was signed by Wenger from Newcastle in the summer of 2014 and soon after the signing, he was injured, which led to the inclusion of Hector

Bellerin as a cover.

The Spaniard excelled at the right-back position and started becoming a regular for the team.

Debuchy is reportedly frustrated with lack of regular starts and is already considering moving out of Emirates due to lack of opportunities.

Meanwhile, Carl Jenkinson is already in his second year in a lon at West Ham, which justifies Wenger’s idea of looking for a long term replacement.

Aina actually started out his career as right winger but gradually moved on to become a solid right-back and this special quality of his makes him more

powerful as is quick and can also operate as a central defender.

West Ham and Everton have also set their eyes on the young defender while German teams Like Dortmund and Leverkusen have expressed considerable

interest to bring the youngster into their team for him to develop in Germany.

Arsenal would definitely hate to miss out promising tlanets like Aina and would surely try to bring the defender to Emirates if a move is possible.
