Arsenal target PSG defender Emmanuel Mbemba and Leicester teen striker Jeremy Monga

Arsenal are reported to be pursuing two teenage prospects in the upcoming summer window. The club is in talks to sign 18‑year‑old French left‑back Emmanuel Mbemba, who will leave Paris Saint‑Germain on a free transfer after his contract expires. While his wages could be high, the deal would be low in transfer cost, and Arsenal are said to be the frontrunners despite interest from other clubs.

At the same time, Arsenal are also looking at 16‑year‑old Leicester City attacker Jeremy Monga, described by scouts as a generational talent. Reports say Arteta and sporting director Andrea Berta have outlined a clear pathway for Monga into the first team, mirroring the club’s recent integration of other academy graduates. The double pursuit reflects Arsenal’s broader strategy of securing low‑cost, high‑potential youth to bolster the squad for future challenges.

Both moves would signal a continued emphasis on youth recruitment under manager Mikel Arteta, aiming to complement senior signings and maintain competitiveness in the Premier League.
