Reports in England have continued to claim that Monaco winger Thomas Lemar wants to join Arsenal.
The 21-year-old is eager to embark on a new experience in the English Premier League and wants to work under manager Arsene Wenger.
Meanwhile, the Arsenal boss has confirmed that he wants to sign the player.
"He's a player that we have looked at, but the rest is only speculation," he told reporters.
"I am open to get some more signings, but it is not easy to find the players who can strengthen our squad, because we have top-quality players.
"There are two ways to improve always: analyse what we did well last season and what we did not so well and improve that, and then you can bring new players in.
"But at the moment, because we are in pre-season, it is very important for us to analyse well what happened last season and where we can improve.
"We have top quality in our squad, and at the moment I focus on that."
