Arsenal shortlist watch
Real Madrids Sami Khedira
Real Madrids Sami Khedira is the first of many center-midfielders on this list. Sami Khedira has explained him wanting to move as he feels he doesnt get a chance by Carlo Ancelotti. Khedira would be very cheap comparing to other center-midfielders on this list but would cost around 17 million pound to bring from Santiago Bernabeu to The Emirates Stadium he would join his old german Real Madrid friend Mesut Ozil.
Borussia Dortmunds Ilkay Gundogan
Ilkay Gundogan is one of two Jurgen Klopp wants to bring with him from Borussia Dortmund. The center-midfielder was one of Klopps old favourites back at Dortmund a transfer from Signal Iduna Park to the Emirates Stadium would cost around 30 million pounds. But with him being only 24 and already a superstar its hard to see a reason why it wouldnt be worthwhile. Gundogan has said he would consider Arsenal if a good bid fell in.
River Plates Eder Alvarez Balanta
This colombian center-back is on of the best talents in the world.Balanta was named in Colombia's squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. But didnt play but a single game in their campaign. He was almost done for Valencia last year but it was cancelled in the last second.
But now he could transition to the red part of North London. Balanta has already earned 5 caps for Colombia.
Sporting CPs William Carvalho
The 22-year old William Carvalho has played eleven times for Portugal and two of them being in the World Cup aiganst the US and Ghana. Being linked to Arsenal with Arsene Wenger to hes one of many that both Wenger and Klopp have been interested in.
Borussia Dortmunds Marco Reus
Marco Reus is the second and final one that might come with Klopp to Arsenal. Marco Reus has a bargain release fee of 21 million pounds. That could be one of the reasons that he would come to Arsenal but they wont sign without competition as no less than seven other team interesed. Them being Juventus, Chelsea, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona, Liverpool and last but not least Bayern Munich.
PSGs Blaise Matuidi
PSgs Blaise Matuidi is the final and most expensive on this list costing atleast 40 million pounds to sign from oil-rich PSG. But being one of the defensive midfielders in the world it might be worth it. Matuidi is also one of Frances big players having played 32 caps for them and in scoring 4 goals.
