Sami Khedira is set to be unveiled as a new Arsenal player on Monday, according to reports.
The Real Madrid midfielder has been linked with a move to The Gunners this summer after recent stories in the Spanish media suggested that Los Blancos had agreed a £19.8m fee with the north London club.
Despite Khedira’s agent insisting that his client was not in talks with Arsenal, CaughtOffside has now claimed that the Emirates Stadium outfit have agreed personal terms with the Germany international and will confirm the midfielder’s capture on Monday.
Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, was asked about Khedira following the club’s 2-0 win over Boreham Wood in a pre-season friendly on Saturday, but, refused to reveal which players he was targeting in the coming months.
‘I can’t give you any names,’ Wenger told reporters.
‘We are still active. Sometimes the players you want are available very late. You do the deals when they are possible.’
That's what I was thinking. I find it hard to believe that Sami was on more than Ozil was at Real. Why his wages should be such an issue is anyone's guess.
Sami and his agent can afford to ride this one to the end though......if a deal doesn't happen, then he is probably happy to stay where he is......the onus is more on Real getting him out whilst they can get a decent fee for him.
How reliable is caughtoffside? More importantly, who are they?
Oh good.. seems reliable then
Caughtoffside have us buying Khedira, Balotelli and Varane whilst also selling Vermaelen, Podolski, Cazorla and Jenkinson.
:rolleyes:
I don't believe anyhing until the Arsenal Horse has spoken.
Well with Rodriguez supposedly being confirmed at Real tomorrow it may make sense it happens then.
