Wendel became a regular in the Zenit side last season after signing in 2020, but with three years left on his current deal, he may not come cheap.

With attacking reinforcements already secured in Gabriel Jesus, Marquinhos, and Fabio Vieira, Mikel Arteta will be looking to add numbers into the deeper midfield positions.

At 24 years old, Wendel will have his best years ahead of him, and if he was to sign for Arsenal, would join an array of young talent already at the club.
