Arsenal transfer rumour round-up – Xhaka, Morata, Sissoko, Arda Turan, Kante

With only the cup finals left before the football season can officially be ended, our club is already believed to be working on bolstering ahead of the coming campaign.

Granit Xhaka is claimed to have flown to London today, with a medical scheduled in for over the weekend, as he is believed to be near completing his move from Borussia Monchengladbach.

We are also claimed to have readied an offer £40 Million to Real Madrid to make Alvaro Morata available for transfer, with the Spanish giants believed to have a £25 Million buy-back clause in the Juventus striker’s contract.

Barcelona are also believed to be making one of their attacking threats available, with Arda Turan having failed to earn an important role for the Catalan club. The Turkish international has been linked with a move to Arsenal previously, but we are claimed to be in line for a battle with United for his signature this window.

Leicester City’s Premier League superstar N’Golo Kante is now a key target for Paris Saint-Germain, putting his prospective move to the Emirates in doubt. The midfielder was my pick of all our targets to join, but with Xhaka all but having agreed, it seemed unlikely.

Moussa Sissoko is another central star who has been linked with a move to North-London this summer. We have been linked with him for over 18 months now, and with Newcastle having been relegated, he look certain to seal a move before the new campaign. We are linked with a possible £10 Million deal.

Is Sissoko good enough to challenge Xhaka, Elneny and Coquelin? Could we land Turan or Morata?
