Majer has been compared to former Tottenham star Luka Modric in his homeland and has impressed for Ligue 1 side Rennes registering 18 goal contributions in 44 appearances since signing for the French side last year.

 

The Gunners missed out on signing Douglas Luiz on Deadline Day and could look to sign Majer to provide depth and add more quality to Mikel Arteta’s midfield options in the second half of the season.
