Arsenal and Manchester City will reportedly battle it out for the signature of West Bromwich Albion defender Jonny Evans in January after both clubs were linked with the player over the summer.
The Daily Telegraph's John Percy reported both clubs are set to revive their interest in Evans as they look to boost their defensive options for the second half of the 2017-18 campaign.
Of the chasing pair, City perhaps have greater need of centre-back cover after BBC Sport confirmed in mid-November that a hamstring injury would keep John Stones sidelined for six weeks.
The Gunners are less desperate in terms of personnel after Shkodran Mustafi returned to their lineup, and ArsenalFanTV nodded to the stubborn record he holds as a part of manager Arsene Wenger's new-look defence:
Games: 6
Goals conceded: 0
