Zeno Debast offered to Arsenal, Sporting's asking price revealed | OneFootball

Zeno Debast has entered Arsenal’s orbit at a time when the London club is looking for solutions to cover William Saliba’s prolonged absence. The Sporting centre-back was reportedly suggested to the ‘gunners’ by intermediaries.

According to CaughtOffside, the 22-year-old Belgium international is available for a fee of around €40 million.

The English club’s decision-makers are said to have watched Debast before and have not ruled out the possibility of making an approach. Even so, the process is still at an early stage, as Arsenal only recently received conclusive information about Saliba’s injury.

Manchester United also retain a long-standing interest in the Sporting centre-back, although he is not among their top priorities in this transfer window. The Belgium international therefore emerges as a more affordable alternative compared to other targets being considered by Arsenal.

Last season, Zeno Debast - valued at €28 million - made 24 official appearances in a Sporting shirt. The Belgium international played just 1,506 minutes, registering two assists, but no goals.
