​Arsenal confident of completing deals for White, Lokonga

Arsenal are very confident in their ability to sign both Ben White and Albert Sambi Lokonga this summer.

The Gunners have put in a bid for the Brighton and Hove Albion centre-back, per various English media reports.

According to football.london, Arsenal feel they can do enough to secure White from Brighton in the coming weeks and give manager Mikel Arteta the quality center back he desires.

Anderlecht midfielder Lokonga is another key target, with Arsenal said to have even more confidence in his signing.

The Belgian club want around £18 million for the midfielder, which means Arsenal may wait until Granit Xhaka is sold to Roma before finalising the deal.
