The buildup to the summer transfer window has now begun, with rumours and speculation continuing to swirl as Arsenal eye possible reinforcements.

The Gunners spent more than many expected during the summer - most notably their club-record purchase of Nicolas Pepe - but were more reserved in January as they focused on bolstering their defensive options.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings at the Emirates Stadium.

Tuesday morning's Arsenal transfer talk news roundup:

Arsenal 'still in the running for Justin Kluivert'

Roma winger Justin Kluivert reportedly remains as a transfer target for Arsenal.

In recent weeks, it has been suggested that the Gunners may look to sign the Dutchman when discussing the likely exit of Henrikh Mkhitaryan.

Although no progress has been made regarding a possible swap deal, Corriere dello Sport claims that Arsenal are still keen on the wideman.

Despite the feeling that Kluivert is yet to fully convince at Stadio Olimpico since 2018, nine goals have been scored from 64 outings in all competitions.

Roma are said to value the 21-year-old in the region of £27m, a fee which will act as a stumbling block unless Arsenal make player sales.

The former Ajax man still has three years remaining on his contract with the Serie A side.

Bayern Munich 'not interested in Hector Bellerin'

Bayern Munich reportedly have no intention of moving for Arsenal defender Hector Bellerin during the next transfer window.

While the right-back is currently regarded as first choice at the Gunners, it has been claimed that the Spaniard is keen on a departure from the Emirates Stadium.

Should the 25-year-old formally request an exit over the coming months, he would not be short of offers from around Europe.

However, according to Sky Deutschland, Bayern will not be making an approach for Bellerin before the beginning of next season.

The report suggests that high-profile figures at the Allianz Arena have concerns over the defensive qualities of the attack-minded full-back.

Despite Bellerin allegedly being available for just £20m, the Bundesliga champions are said to have little interest in negotiating a deal.
