The Dutchman is currently the top scorer in the Eredivisie with eight goals.

Arsenal are ready to fight to bring back highly rated youngster Donyell Malen who left the club for just £200,000 two years ago. 

The winter market is getting nearer and nearer and Arsenal are already thinking about new players to strengthen their team, above all, in attack.

According to rumors from Italy, Arsenal would be willing to pay €56 million for PSV Eindhoven forward Donyell Malen.

Donyell Malen has truly come into his own since returning to his homeland in August 2017. The forward began his career with Ajax at the age of eight in 2007, before moving to Arsenal as a 16-year-old teenager in 2015. The Dutchman of Surinamese descent had declined offers from both Manchester United and Chelsea to join the Gunners, inspired by his idol and former Ajax U10s coach Dennis Bergkamp.

Arsene Wenger was a fan of the youngster and Malen was soon featuring regularly for the Gunners’ under-23s, for whom he scored seven goals in 24 matches across two seasons. But that’s as good as it got for him in north London: despite his impressive form at youth level – form which earned him first-team involvement in 2017 pre-season, Malen sought regular senior football and joined PSV Eindhoven for a cut-price £200,000 that summer.

Ever since, He has become one of PSV Eindhoven‘s greatest jewels and he is not lacking in suitors around Europe, as has been key to coach Mark van Bommel and many teams have become interested in his situation, including Italian side AC Milan.

However, Arsenal are the last reported club to take an interest in the striker, and according to Tuttosport, coach Unai Emery would be doing everything possible to ensure that Malen ends up strengthening his attacking side.

The English would be willing to offer €56 million to sign him, which would be very valuable for PSV for the winter market, despite the 14 goals in 17 games scored by the attacker.
