Arsenal are reportedly intensifying their efforts to sign Fenerbahce’s versatile defender Ferdi Kadioglu, according to several reports.

Reports suggest the Gunners have already submitted an offer for Kadioglu, highlighting their eagerness to secure his signature.

Transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, however, has tempered expectations, stating that “there is no news yet” on a finalized deal.

While a move to the Premier League seems likely for Kadioglu, Romano suggests fans “have to wait a bit longer” to see which club will ultimately win the race for his signature.

“Kadioglu is always been linked with several clubs – there have been stories about Aston Villa as well as Arsenal – but there is no news yet,.

“A move to the Premier League is concrete possibility, but for now we have to wait a bit longer and see which club will really go for it,” he wrote in him column on Caught Offside.

Arsenal are reportedly working behind the scenes to push through a deal before another club makes a move. The report also suggests Kadioglu is keen on joining the Gunners.

With Arsenal needing reinforcements in defense, Kadioglu’s versatility makes him a very attractive option. Whether they can reach an agreement with Fenerbahce to secure his services remains to be seen.
