Arsenal are eyeing three Premier League midfielders ahead of this summer's transfer window, according to reports.

Mikel Arteta is keen to add to his squad and has identified West Ham's Declan Rice as his number one target, with Football Insider claiming a bid in the region of £100m could tempt their London rivals to sell their star man.

Unsurprisingly, Brighton's Moises Caicedo is also on that shortlist, with the Gunners still interested in the talented Ecudorian after seeing two bids worth up to £70m rejected in January.

The final man on Arteta's shortlist is Everton's Amadou Onana.

The Belgian powerhouse has impressed despite his side's struggles this season, and the Toffees could demand a fee in the region of £70m, but that should be slashed if they are relegated from the Premier League.

Defensive midfielder Thomas Partey has shone for Arsenal this season, but with Jorginho's contract up at the end of next season, and Mohamed Elneny missing large parts of this campaign through injury, the Gunners could do with more depth in that role.

Rice, Caicedo or Onana? Who would you rather Arsenal sign this summer? Let us know in the comments!
