Jesus Areso

Arsenal have reportedly set their sights on La Liga again as they prepare to strengthen their squad for next season.

According to Fichajes, Osasuna full-back Jesus Areso has emerged as a potential signing for the Gunners.

The 25-year-old has impressed with his strong displays, making him a key player in Vicente Moreno’s team.

Areso is known for his ability to cover the flanks with speed and energy.

His physical presence and defensive awareness make him one of the most reliable full-backs in Spain.

His performances have attracted attention from several clubs, and Arsenal now appear to be among those closely monitoring him.

Osasuna are currently 14th in the league, and Areso will see a move to Arsenal as a big step up.

It would give him the chance to compete for major trophies and play in the Champions League.

Arsenal Looking to Add a Natural Full-Back

Mikel Arteta has often used centre-backs in full-back positions this season.

Youngster Myles Lewis-Skelly has played as a left-back this season and has done really well. Summer signing Riccardo Calafiori has also played there, but injuries and inconsistencies have kept him out of the team.

On the opposite side, Jurrien Timber has been the mainstay at right-back this season due to Ben White’s injury issues. Both made their names as centre-backs before being converted to right-backs by Arteta.

However, it appears Arsenal are now looking to bring in a natural full-back for added stability. Areso fits that profile, and his style of play suits the fast pace of the Premier League.

Football FanCast reports that Arteta sees Areso as a perfect addition to his squad. The Osasuna defender has the speed and stamina needed to excel in England.

Arsenal could make an official move in the coming months as they prepare for next season.

Areso is valued at £ 7 million (transfermarkt), but Osasuna are expected to demand more. Reports suggest he has a release clause of £10 million.

As interest grows, Osasuna will have to decide whether to cash in or keep him.

Arsenal are not the only club tracking Areso, so competition could be fierce. However, if the Gunners make a firm offer, they might secure his signature before the new season begins.
