Arsenal have been closely linked with a move for Barcelona star Arda Turan over the past few months.

Reports in Spain claim that Barcelona are keen on selling the attacking midfielder.

Spanish publication Sport report that Barcelona want to recoup as much of the £32 million [€38m] they paid for him in 2015.

Per the source, the La Liga giants would accept £24 million [€28m] for Turan.

Marca meanwhile report that Turan has received interest from Arsenal and Inter Milan but that he is intent on staying at Barca.

Turan’s agent Ahmet Bulut was spotted holding talks with Inter Milan club officials just a few weeks ago.

The reigning La Liga champions could be forced into a difficult position if Turan refuses to play ball.

The experienced attacking midfielder does have another three-years on his contract and could refuse to leave.

The former Atletico Madrid man has 13 goals and seven assists in all competitions for Barcelona this season.
