The Gunners are desperate to bring in a defensive midfielder before the window closes on Tuesday.
A move for Moises Caicedo is yet to find success as Brighton have not changed their stance on not selling him and have rejected two offers from the north London club.
Arsenal are now exploring other options and are considering tabling offers for other targets ahead of Tuesday’s transfer deadline.
It has been claimed they are amongst the clubs who are exploring a deal to sign Chelsea star Jorginho.
The Gunners have expressed an interest in taking the Italy international to the Emirates ahead of the deadline.
Chelsea are actively pushing to sign Enzo Fernandez on a deal worth €130m and his arrival could push him down the pecking order.
Jorginho is in the final six months of his contract and could be available for a small fee if Chelsea sign one more midfielder.
Arsenal have other players on their radar as well but are rapidly running out of time to get a deal over the line.
