Arsenal is preparing to make significant changes to its defense during the summer transfer window, amid doubts about the future of its defender Ben White, whose participation has noticeably decreased, according to reports from "TEAMtalk".

Ivan Fresneda, the young right-back at Sporting Lisbon, is a primary target for the London club, having established himself as one of the fastest defenders in the UEFA Champions League. He has delivered outstanding performances over the past 18 months, reigniting the interest of several Premier League clubs, including Manchester City and Newcastle United.

Viana, the sporting director of Sporting Lisbon, has previously expressed his admiration for Fresneda and his suitability for the English Premier League. Manchester City also sees him as a potential addition to coach Pep Guardiola's defensive system, while Newcastle is keen on signing him.

Arsenal had previously shown significant interest in Fresneda, who made his debut with Valladolid, before he chose to move to the Portuguese giant Sporting Lisbon, where he became one of the most exciting right-backs in Europe.
