Which are the most credible Arsenal transfer rumours right now?
Sky Sports has teamed up with Football Whispers to bring you the hottest transfer talk of the moment, as Arsene Wenger looks to improve his squad ahead of the upcoming Premier League season.
Football Whispers have developed a unique algorithm to take all of the transfer rumours from across the globe and calculate the likelihood of them happening.
They track transfer stories and give them a score out of 5.0, with the hottest Whispers closest to 5.0.
The top three are:
1. Takuma Asano (Sanfrecce Hiroshima) - 4.7
The Sanfrecce Hiroshima forward has made a surprise entry in at No 1 on today's Arsenal transfer rumours after stories emerged claiming Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was hoping to sign the player this summer.
The Japan international recently claimed that the Gunners have been in contact with him regarding a possible move to north London next season after missing out on the signature of Leicester City striker Jamie Vardy.
2. Alexandre Lacazette (Lyon) - 2.7
After scoring 21 goals in Ligue 1 last season, Alexandre Lacazette appears to have caught the attentions of several clubs around Europe.
West Ham are still interested in signing Lacazette, according to Sky sources, but they have not made an improved bid to match his reported price tag of £43.5m (€52m).
Could Arsenal now make a move?
3. Sam Byram (West Ham United) - 2.4
He may have only moved to West Ham from Leeds on a four-and-a-half year deal in January, but Byram is reportedly being lined up as a replacement for Hector Bellerin by Wenger.
Bellerin has been linked with a move to Barcelona, which could pave the way for 22-year-old Byram to move to the Emirates in his place.
However, the young defender made only four appearances at Upton Park last season, and the Hammers will see him as one for the future at the Olympic Stadium.
