Arsenal are reportedly considering whether to sell Jorginho and Thomas Partey in January, as they look to make a move for Fluminense midfielder Andre.

Arsenal could reportedly sanction January departures for Jorginho and Thomas Partey.

The Gunners have recently been linked with a possible January move for highly-rated Fluminense midfielder Andre.

Although Arsenal have allegedly joined the race to sign the 22-year-old, they face competition from Premier League rivals Liverpool.

A recent report claimed that Jurgen Klopp's side were currently leading the pursuit to land the Brazilian in the January window.

However, according to Football Insider, Arsenal could step up their interest if they sell at least one first-team player in January.

The report suggests that Jorginho and Partey are potential candidates to leave the club during the winter transfer window.

Both players are believed to be the subject of interest, and a departure for either player would free up funds and make space in the squad, which would help facilitate a move for Andre.

Jorginho and Partey have both seemingly fallen down the pecking order this season following the summer signing of Declan Rice.

The Italian, who joined Arsenal in January, has had to settle for two starts in nine Premier League games this season.

Both of those starts have taken place in the last two matches, including Saturday's 2-2 draw with his former club Chelsea.

While Partey has been hampered by injury, he was utilised in the right side of defence for Arsenal's first three league games, rather than his preferred position of central midfield.

Since returning from a spell on the sidelines, the Ghana international has played 15 minutes in three games for the Gunners.

Although uncertainty surrounds the pair's future in North London, Jorginho and Partey are expected to feature in the matchday squad for Tuesday's Champions League clash with Sevilla.
