Roma winger Cengiz Under - currently on loan at Leicester City - reportedly emerges as a summer transfer target for Arsenal.

Roma winger Cengiz Under has emerged as a potential summer target for Arsenal, according to a report.

The 23-year-old has been plying his trade on loan at Leicester City during the 2020-21 campaign, but he has struggled to become a consistent part of Brendan Rodgers's plans.

Under has been a regular in the Europa League, but the attacker has made a mere nine appearances in the Premier League - starting just one of them - and he has managed two top-flight assists in that time.

Leicester do have the option to purchase the Turkey international, but the Foxes are not expected to trigger it given his dismal season, and TuttoMercatoWeb claims that Arsenal could instead look to move for the attacker.

Under's last taste of Premier League action actually came against the Gunners, during which he replaced the injured Harvey Barnes in their 3-1 home defeat back in February.

The former Basaksehir man has a contract with parent club Roma until 2023, where he has scored 17 goals and assisted 12 more in 88 appearances since arriving in 2017.

AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund are also said to be keeping a close eye on developments.
