Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing Getafe defender Mathias Olivera, potentially as a replacement for Nuno Tavares.

Getafe defender Mathias Olivera has reportedly emerged as a potential transfer target for Arsenal.

Having missed out on Champions League football for next season, Mikel Arteta will naturally be contemplating new arrivals ahead of 2022-23, some of them enforced due to likely departures on free transfers.

If speculation is to be believed, signing at least one new striker is the priority, but it appears that the Spaniard may be open to strengthening in an area which had appeared resolved last year.

According to Tuttomercatoweb, Olivera has been identified as a potential addition to the first-team squad, the left-back having impressed in La Liga this season.

The Uruguay international made a total of 32 starts in Spain's top flight, putting him on the radar of bigger clubs despite only penning a contract extension last summer.

A move for the 24-year-old would seemingly leave Nuno Tavares's role in the squad in doubt, the young Portuguese having largely struggled during his first year in the Premier League.
