Kai Havertz became Mikel Arteta's first signing of the window last month after he completed a £65million move from Chelsea.

Dutch defender Jurrien Timber is also set to make his way to North London, with a £34m agreement in place with Ajax.

And England international Declan Rice is set to become Arsenal's third summer addition.

The Gunners finally reached a record-breaking £105m agreement with West Ham last week following a lengthy period of negotiations.

But Arteta already has his sights set on another target.

According to French outlet Le10 Sport, Arsenal are considering a swoop for Veiga.

The midfielder, who is expected to leave Celta Vigo this summer, has a £34m release clause.

But the Gunners face competition from Premier League rivals Tottenham and Chelsea.

Viega, who has been dubbed the "mini-Kaka", recently starred for Spain at the Under-21 European Championship.

The 21-year-old scored 11 goals and assisted four in 40 appearances for Celta last season and his impressive form attracted attention from some of Europe's biggest clubs.
