Arsenal Launch Summer Push for PSG Midfielder Senny Mayulu
Arsenal have made a concrete offer for Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Senny Mayulu, signaling an aggressive recruitment drive for the 19-year-old French talent ahead of the summer transfer window.
The 19-year-old midfielder has emerged as a primary target for the north London club. Mayulu joined PSG’s academy structure in 2020 after six years at AF Épinay-sur-Seine, progressing through the ranks to earn his first-team debut in January 2024 under Luis Enrique. Since that breakthrough, he has accumulated 76 appearances across all competitions, contributing 12 goals and 9 assists.
This season alone, Mayulu has recorded 5 goals and 5 assists across 32 matches (16 league starts), playing 1,835 minutes. His Ligue 1 performance metrics reveal a well-rounded midfielder: 1.4 key passes per game, 2.0 tackles, 3.6 duels won, 0.8 possession recoveries in the final third, 0.4 shots on target, 0.3 interceptions, and 0.2 clearances per match.
Contract Dispute Strengthens Arsenal Position
Mayulu carries less than 18 months remaining on his current PSG contract. While the French champions seek to extend his terms, negotiations have stalled. The France U21 international harbors concerns about reduced playing time following potential summer signings at PSG, creating hesitation around any renewal agreement already tabled by the club.
A recent calf injury sidelined Mayulu for two weeks, forcing him to miss international break commitments. This setback has not deterred Arsenal‘s offensive, with the club’s representatives having approached his agents directly with a formal proposal. The terms remain undisclosed, yet sources confirm the north London club’s recruitment campaign is actively progressing.
PSG’s negotiating position has weakened considerably. Under advisor Luis Campos, the Parisian club initiated contract discussions but failed to reach agreement. Mayulu‘s apprehension about his future role has attracted competing suitors, though Arsenal have emerged as the most aggressive bidder.

Arsenal‘s pursuit of Mayulu represents a strategic diversification of midfield reinforcements. His technical development, consistent output, and contract circumstances align with Mikel Arteta‘s summer objectives. Stay updated on this transfer story with TipsGG.
