"Arsenal are keeping a close watch on the contract situation of Leon Goretzka, with the midfielder emerging as a potential free-transfer target ahead of the summer window. According to Daily Mirror, the Gunners are among several clubs exploring the possibility of signing the Bayern Munich star once his current deal expires in June. The north London side are understood to have made exploratory enquiries during the January transfer window, but Bayern Munich were unwilling to sanction a mid-season departure."
"With Bayern still competing on multiple fronts and short on experienced midfield depth, the German champions were determined to keep hold of Goretzka until at least the end of the campaign. That stance, however, is expected to soften once the season concludes. Bayern Munich midfielder has experience at the top level Now 31, Goretzka remains one of the most experienced midfielders in European football."

Atletico Madrid, Napoli and Juventus are also monitoring his situation. Arsenal view added leadership and know-how as important for sustained title bids and deep European runs.
