Arsenal is reportedly preparing to submit a formal £45m offer to sign Antonio Nusa from RB Leipzig, according to Football Talk citing Tuttomercatoweb. Nusa has been one of Leipzig's best players and the Bundesliga's top wingers this season. He has made ten goal contributions in twelve games so far. The 21-year-old has been described as 'extraordinary' by Manchester City forward Erling Haaland.

Nusa has been performing exceptionally well, leading the Bundesliga chart for most assists with five in seven games and having eight goal contributions in 538 minutes. He also tops the league in successful dribbles with 17. His prolific displays have attracted Arsenal's interest as they look to strengthen their attack under Mikel Arteta.

Leipzig is holding out for a £58m valuation for Nusa, who is also of interest to AS Roma. Arsenal are reportedly willing to negotiate, having enquired about a potential deal and considered raising their initial £45m offer. The Gunners' willingness to pay the £58m valuation is uncertain, given their past reluctance to pay top dollar for Morgan Rogers.

Source context

Arsenal have expressed a serious interest in signing Norwegian international winger Antonio Nusa from RB Leipzig, according to Tuttomercatoweb. It appears Yan Diomande may have passed the baton of leading Leipzig’s attack to Nusa, as the youngster has been not only one of Leipzig’s best players but also one of the Bundesliga’s best wingers this season. Prior to this campaign, the 21-year-old had been highly regarded as one of Europe’s most exciting prospects from his time at Club Brugge, where he set the record for the youngest Norwegian to play in the UEFA Champions League and the second-youngest to score in the competition at just 17 years, four months and 27 days. He carried that excitement to Germany after Leipzig signed him in the summer of 2024, where he emerged as a revelation.
