View Arsenal summer 2026 transfer targets
Manchester United are prepared to go head-to-head with Arsenal in the race to sign Sporting CP left-back Maxi Araujo this summer.
Araujo has established himself as one of the best full-backs in the Portuguese top-flight and he has been touted for a bigger challenge.
A move to the Premier League could be on the cards and reports claim that United and Arsenal are among the leading candidates to land him.
United are eyeing a strong competitor to Luke Shaw at left-back next season as they prepare for a long-awaited return to the Champions League.
The Red Devils have Patrick Dorgu in their ranks, but he has been vulnerable defensively and looks more suited to play as a wide attacker.
Arsenal‘s interest in Araujo comes as a surprise as they already have Piero Hincapie, Riccardo Calafiori and Myles Lewis-Skelly in the squad.
The speculation regarding the Gunners could be agent-driven. They are unlikely to make a move unless there is a high-profile departure.
