Arsenal have been closely linked with a move for Freiburg defender Caglar Soyuncu.
Turkish-Football spoke to the centre-back’s agent Mustafa Dogru on Friday who confirmed talks with the Gunners.
The North London outfit have yet to agree a transfer fee and rival Premier League sides are also in talks but a fee has yet to be agreed.
We took a look at how Arsenal fans reacted to the latest update on social media.
Arsenal fans generally appear to be keen on the young defender joining the club over the summer.
Arsenal have to fast act for get him now

Torriera, a Gk, sokratis, Lichsteiner and soyuncu would be decent window for us

I’m off Twitter for less than 10 minutes and reliable reports come out that Arsenal have:
• Agreed a deal for Sokratis
• Activated Lucas Torreira’s release clause
• In advance talks with Freiburg for Caglar Soyuncu

A bit rough around the edges, but there’s a lot to like.

If some of these Arsenal transfers happen, it’s great. We’re not signing world class but solid young players who can be, we’re also fixing alot of the holes we have, let’s get Torreira, Soyuncu, Leno & Martins over the line.

We will regret not picking up this guy. Remind me of our most hated Spaniard. If Arsenal get Soyuncu and Torreira…that fills the 2 biggest holes in their squad. Would be great business //t.co/sq2ZusqIVE

Çaglar Soyuncu is the player that excites me the most if we sign him. Surely he’s still developing, and will make mistakes. But as he gets experience he will get more reliable. And his good game level is world class #Arsenal

Some highlights from his performance against Iran last week.
Arsenal target Calgary Soyuncu’s best moments against Iran last night.

Thoughts?
Leno, Lichtsteiner, Soyuncu, Sokratis, Torreira is a quality window. It’s not the most glamorous. But given financial restraints it’s very good. Addresses all the needs in the squad and does it at great prices too. If we manage a winger on top of this then 10/10. #COYG ??

Ah nothing like a bit of banter!
He proved in last couple of days that he will fit well to our team. 1 error directly caused a goal during Friendly vs Russia.

Liverpool getting themselves in trouble.
Liverpool are now also linked to Leno and Soyuncu.
Add to that Lemar Fekir and Martins.
Their club really need to invest in their own scouts.
