Manchester United legend Roy Keane has warned Arsenal against signing Aston Villa forward Ollie Watkins this summer.

Arsenal attempted to sign Ollie Watkins during the January transfer window, making an official offer for the Aston Villa striker. The Gunners have long admired Watkins but had previously not taken any steps to bring him to the Emirates.

Watkins was linked with a January move to Arsenal, with it believed that the Gunners had a bid of around £40million rejected by Villa late in the transfer window. It remains to be seen whether Arsenal or another club make a move for the 29-year-old in the summer, but Keane has cast doubt on whether the elite clubs should be pursuing Watkins.

Watkins was guilty of missing a massive chance to open the scoring in the first half as Villa took on Cardiff City in the FA Cup. He was through on goal but spurned the opportunity. Keane believes such misses define Watkins’s level.

The bid from Arsenal to sign Aston Villa star Ollie Watkins bid has been branded 'disgraceful' and insult to 'unbelievable player'.

ARSENAL are looking ahead to what is expected to be a pivotal summer transfer window for the club. A new striker is top of the bill with RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko the top target –

Another option could be Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak who starred against Arsenal in the League Cup this season; Liverpool are another name linked with a move but it is clear there are multiple options for the Gunners to explore this summer, with Sesko being perhaps the easiest to acquire.
