Arsenal lose Nathaniel Brown in transfer.

Arsenal have suffered a transfer setback in their pursuit of Eintracht Frankfurt defender Nathaniel Brown.

The Premier League champions had been closely linked with a summer move for the 22‑year‑old.

Brown enjoyed a standout season for Frankfurt in the Bundesliga, scoring four goals and delivering four assists.

However, Sky Sports reports that Bayern Munich are now closing in on the Germany international, who has already agreed on personal terms with the German giants.

Arsenal are looking to strengthen manager Mikel Arteta’s squad after their loss to Paris Saint‑Germain in the UEFA Champions League final last month.
