Could Bellerins Desire To Leave End In A Swap Deal
I already mentioned Betis are keen on Arsenal right-back Hector Bellerin after a successful loan spell but refuse to let him go on a free. Real Betis claim to be cash strapped and cannot afford a transfer fee but Arsenal refuses to budge without getting something for Hector. Instead of cash Arsenal are looking to secure one of their players in a swap deal and have identified two players they feel would be a good deal for them.

Nabik Fekir
One of them is a long-term target and most obvious candidate in former Lyon playmaker Fekir, who joined from Ligue 1 outfit in 2019 after a move to Arsenal fell through and he chose Betis instead.
The Gunners are light in midfield, with Martin Odegaard the club's only consistently creative no.10, leaving a spot open for Fekir but this would not be a straight swap as Fakier is valued at 35 - 40 million but with Bellerin that fee could be reduced.
Guido Rodriguez
Another Betis player who has previously linked to Arsenal is their defensive midfielder and tough-tackling Rodriguez. The Argentine international has established himself as one of La Liga's most consistent no.6s but he is 28 so he won't have many years to play at Arsenal when compared to the likes of Fakier.
The former River plate star could add much-needed depth into Mikel Arteta's midfield, lessening the burden on injury-prone Thomas Partey. Rodriguez, who is valued between £13million-£17million and could be a easier swap with such a low fee for him when compared to Fakier.
Arsenal could also offset that money by now having a replacement for Xhaka and allow him to move on and cover the rest of the fee for Rodriguez
