A number of Arsenal fans have taken to Twitter to give their thoughts on the report linking the Gunners with Schalke’s Rabbi Matondo.

Todo Fichajes claims that, as well as the Gunners, Real Madrid are credited with an interest in the Welsh winger, while Chelsea have also thrown their name into the hat.

Matondo joined Schalke in January 2019 for a reported £10million after turning down a new deal at Manchester City, following in Jadon Sancho’s footsteps by swapping England for Germany.

The 19-year-old has clocked up 24 appearances in all competitions for Schalke, including 17 this season, with 15 in the 2019-20 Bundesliga campaign, which has recently resumed.

According to Todo Fichajes, Arsenal have begun conversations with the four-times capped Wales international and his entourage in a bid to convince them of a switch to North London.

However, Matondo has also reportedly been singled out by Real, who are interested in a player said to be on the radar of “the great clubs in Europe”.

The player is a pacey young winger with great running ability and dribbling skills, often leaving defenders trailing on both the left or right flank – something Arsenal could very much do with next season.

Furthermore, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has previously worked with him, the two having been on the books at Manchester City and also working together when the Spaniard coached the Wales Under-16’s as part of his coaching A Licence back in 2015.

What have Arsenal fans made of the speculation? Below is some of the social media reaction:
