Arsenal are advancing their checks on Antonio Nusa as plans gather pace ahead of the January window, with the RB Leipzig winger now firmly among the leading options under consideration. According to Graeme Bailey for TeamTalk, the Gunners have intensified their assessment of the Norway international as Andrea Berta pushes on with work in two priority attacking areas.
The 21-year-old has been watched closely. Arsenal have reportedly had representation at Nusa’s last three matches, a clear sign that interest is active and informed rather than speculative. Those performances have only added to the case for deeper exploration. Nusa has produced six goals and seven assists this season, and in his last three games, against Schalke, Manchester City and Augsburg, he has returned two goals and two assists.
That output matters, particularly because Arsenal are targeting players who can arrive and contribute straight away. The line around the club is that January will be about “quality over quantity”, with Berta focused on additions capable of raising the level immediately.
Antonio Nusa emerges as serious Arsenal target
Nusa is described as “another name firmly in the picture”, and there has already been contact beyond standard scouting. The report states that “his representatives have also been spoken to”, while a move to Arsenal is “understood to appeal to the winger.” That combination, player interest and direct communication, often marks the point at which admiration starts to become a live market opportunity.
Any move, though, would be complicated. Nusa has no release clause in his Leipzig contract and is tied to the Bundesliga side until 2029. Leipzig are said to value him at around €80million, which converts to roughly £66million. At that level, he would become one of Arsenal’s biggest signings and the club would need to decide whether January is the right moment to commit such a substantial fee.
