All the latest Arsenal transfer news and rumours from across the British and European press on Monday, June 26.

The Daily Star claims that Arsenal and Manchester City are weighing up the possibility of completing a straight swap deal for Alexis Sanchez and Sergio Aguero.

Both clubs have been linked with the other's star man and, with no current movement on any one-way deal, an exchange could be the perfect solution for the two parties. Sanchez is also said to be attracting glances from Bayern Munich, so City might have to move fast to capture the Chilean.

His compatriot Arturo Vidal, meanwhile, who is currently playing alongside him at the Confederations Cup, hopes that Sanchez will join him at the Bundesliga giants.

"We'll see if Alexis is coming, I do not know yet," he told German newspaper Bild. "I know him very well. He is a spectacular player. And with him, we would surely improve.
