Arsenal prepare late move for star German playmaker, Serie A giants Inter also in race

Premier League giants Arsenal are planning a late move for 27-year-old Besiktas playmaker Tolgay Arslan.

Arsenal are currently facing a turbulent spell. Alex-Oxlade Chamberlain and Alexis Sanchez have both been linked with moves away from the club. The Gunners are keen to strengthen their squad before the transfer window slams shut later on this week.

According to the Turkish outlet Fanatik, the north London-based club have set their sights on Besiktas’ Tolgay Arslan.

Per the source, Arslan is keen on a move to Arsenal despite recently penning a five-year deal with the Istanbul giants.

Fanatik go onto state that Besiktas have set a €10 million price tag on their star midfielder – which in the current market appears to be extremely low. Tolgay joined the Black Eagles from Hamburg for just €350K back in 2015.

Arsenal take on Bournemouth when the Premier League returns on September 9. Meanwhile Besiktas take on Karabukspor.
