Arsenal reportedly contact Barcelona to enquire about the possibility of signing Ferran Torres and Raphinha, after losing out to Chelsea for Mykhaylo Mudryk.

Arsenal have reportedly contacted Barcelona to enquire about Ferran Torres and Raphinha.

Since losing out on top target Mykhaylo Mudryk to London rivals Chelsea, the Gunners have moved on to alternative targets.

90min reports that sporting director Edu has contacted the Spanish club about potential moves for the former Manchester City and Leeds players, respectively.

The report states that Barcelona are keen to reduce their wage bill in order to make further signings, with former Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on their wishlist.

Both players have featured sporadically so far this season, with Torres starting six league matches and Raphinha starting just seven.

Arsenal are eight points clear of Manchester City at the summit of the Premier League, and are seeking reinforcements as they look to secure a first league title since the 2003-04 season.
