"It is TRUE: Arsenal are considering bringing Leon Goretzka to London this coming summer. Remember, there was an offer from Atletico Madrid; there were negotiations in the January window. Goretzka said no. I heard he wants to move to the Premier League next season. Arsenal knocked on the door late in the winter window, but Goretzka had already made his decision to stay put for the remainder of the season."
"The Gunners are top of the Premier League table at the moment, and they are well-stocked in their midfield areas. However, Mikel Arteta still wants to add an experienced midfielder to their ranks, and has earmarked Goretzka as an option. The Gunners showed interest in signing the Bayern Munich midfielder towards the end of the January window when it became clear that the German international would be leaving the club on a free transfer."
Arsenal remain top of the Premier League and are seeking an experienced central midfielder despite existing midfield depth. Mikel Arteta has identified Leon Goretzka as a potential summer recruit after interest emerged late in the January window. Atletico Madrid previously made an offer and Tottenham also registered interest, but Goretzka declined mid-season moves and pledged to stay at Bayern until the campaign end. Goretzka has expressed a desire to play in the Premier League and has not ruled out a move to Arsenal next season. Vincent Kompany has used him in the Bundesliga, with 18 league appearances and 15 starts.
