"After Bayern made the decision that they would not extend Goretzka's contract beyond the end of the season, several clubs showed interest in signing him. Arsenal attempted to sign Goretzka during the January window, but the midfielder had already given Bayern the word that he would stay for the remainder of the season."
"Christian Falk has told CFBayern that Leon Goretzka is highly sought after by Inter Milan. The Italians are rethinking their squad after being knocked out of the Champions League."
"It has been suggested that Goretzka is open to a move to the Premier League, which could give Arsenal an edge over other potential suitors. Both Arsenal and Inter Milan can offer him that platform, while a move to Leverkusen could be tempting if they secure an automatic Champions League spot next season."
Leon Goretzka is set to leave Bayern Munich as a free agent in summer 2024 after the club decided not to extend his contract. Multiple elite European clubs are pursuing the 31-year-old German midfielder, including Premier League sides Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, Serie A leaders Inter Milan, and Bundesliga side Bayer Leverkusen. Arsenal attempted to sign Goretzka during the January transfer window, but he chose to remain at Bayern for the season's remainder. Inter Milan has intensified their interest following their Champions League elimination by Bodo/Glimt and plans to reshape their squad. Goretzka has indicated openness to a Premier League move, potentially favoring Arsenal. Champions League football availability appears crucial to his decision, giving Arsenal and Inter Milan competitive advantages over Tottenham and other suitors.
