Arsenal's £50m Ben White transfer could help Liverpool's summer plans
Liverpool could benefit from Ben White’s move to Arsenal. The Brighton and Hove Albion central defender is expected to move to north London after the two clubs agreed to terms on a £50m deal.
White’s arrival is part of an attempted squad overhaul at Arsenal, as manager Mikel Arteta looks to build a squad capable of lifting the Gunners back to the top of English football.
Arsenal chiefs are believed to be willing to spend as much as £250million to secure their preferred targets.
And midfield options Albert Sambi Lokonga, Yves Bissouma and James Maddison and Norwich full-back Max Aarons are all reportedly of interest to Arsenal, in addition to White.
Those five players are all also under 25, fitting the preferred profile of the club’s transfer targets, as they prioritise players with growth and sell-on value.
But Arsenal’s transfer intent could also have a knock-on effect across the Premier League, with Liverpool one of the beneficiaries.
