ARSENAL have suffered a transfer blow after reportedly missing out on signing highly-rated midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai.

The 20-year-old has been a major target for the Gunners but Szoboszlai has agreed to join RB Leipzig in a £18.25million deal from Salzburg, according to Kicker.

The Hungarian talent is seen as one of the most exciting prospects in Europe.

Szoboszlai has been a revelation for RB Salzburg with his performances attracting the interest of Arsenal.

The Gunners were willing to pay the attacker’s release clause and Mikel Arteta identified him as a key target.

But this is the latest setback for Arsenal in a dismal start to the season which has seen pressure intensify on Arteta after losing at home to Burnley on Sunday.

Arsenal are in desperate need of an injection of creativity, having scored just ten goals in 12 league games.

Szoboszlai would have fit the bill, with the rising star scoring eight goals and providing ten assists already this season.

But Arsenal have missed out on the highly-rated midfielder with Szoboszlai opting to move to Germany.

Szoboszlai has already made an impact for his country, scoring three times in his first 12 caps for Hungary.

Speaking recently about his talismanic attacking midfielder, RB Salzburg boss Jesse Marsch told Futbol with Grant Wahl podcast: “He’s an incredible talent, and I say this: When you coach young players, you have to love them and love the fact that they’re going to move on and love that they’re going to have big opportunities to prove themselves and show how good they are.

“If you’re only worried about how it affects your success, then you’re not really going to ever be effective at coaching and leading young people.

“So with a guy like Dominik, I mean, I want him to show everyone in the world how good he is.”
