Arsenal Target Travels To Russia Ahead Of Final Game Before Talks With Gunners

Caglar Soyuncu

The Turkey national side have arrived in Moscow ahead of their final friendly game of the international break, against Russia.

Turkey will take on the 2018 hosts after beating Iran 2-1 and being held to a 2-2 draw against Tunisia.

Twenty-two-year-old Arsenal target Caglar Soyuncu was among the travelling squad to Russia.

The Freiburg centre-back has started the last two games for Turkey and scored his first international goal, a last-gasp equaliser against Tunisia.

Soyuncu is expected to start again in what will be his final game before holding talks with Arsenal and other clubs over his future.

The defender confirmed he will be holding negotiations once the international break is over.

Despite his age, Soyuncu has established himself as a first-choice centre-back for Turkey and has 15 international caps under his belt.

Bundesliga outfit Freiburg value their star man who is under contract until 2021 as being worth £35 million.

Turkey will be hoping to maintain their unbeaten record in 2018 intact but will not be competing in the World Cup this summer after failing to qualify.
