Federico Dimarco is reportedly a target for Arsenal next summer as they prepare a partial-exchange offer to test Inter Milan, according to Inter Live. The Real Madrid gaze is likewise on the Italian international. Given that they are prepared to go with money and a "important" player, the Gunners may seek a large acquisition. If Arsenal is able to sign another left-back next summer, supporters will be shocked. There are at least four or five alternatives available to the Gunners, so they are quite well equipped in that area. After starting two of their past three games there, right-footed player Jurrien Timber is expected to give way to summer addition Riccardo Calafiori in the long term. 

The only reliable left-back alternatives available to Mikel Arteta are the undesirable Kieran Tierney and Oleksandr Zinchenko, while Jakub Kiwior has previously played in that position.
