According to The Sun, Arsenal are looking at spending £100m on new players, with three key players targeted.
Parteyis the first name on their list, and has been tracked by the Gunners for some time.
The French midfielder is expected to leave Atletico Madrid this summer, and reportedly has a release clause of £45m, which Arsenal are keen to get a discount on.
But Atletico want the full amount, and are apparently unwilling to compromise.

Real Madrid want £30m for the midfielder, but Arsenal want to take him on loan with an option for a permanent move next year.
With the three set to cost nearly £100m, Arteta knows he’ll have to sell players, with six players set to leave.
Matteo Guendouzi, Lucas Torreira, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Shkodran Mustafi, Mohamed Elneny and Henrikh Mkhitaryan are all up for sale this summer.
Guendouzi and Maitland-Niles are both valued at over £30m, and will go a long way towards funding their bids for Partey, Ceballos and Magalhaes.
