Bayern Munich midfielder, available for free this summer, reportedly prefers England as his next destination, giving the Gunners a key edge.
Arsenal may hold a decisive advantage in the race to sign Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka, with reports indicating the German international has a clear preference for a move to the Premier League this summer.
The 31-year-old powerhouse will become a free agent at the end of the season and is expected to have no shortage of suitors, with several top Italian clubs also linked. However, Goretzka’s personal desire to test himself in England’s top flight could tip the scales in favor of the North London club.
According to The Mirror, Arsenal made preliminary enquiries for Goretzka during the January transfer window as they sought cover for the injured Mikel Merino. While a move did not materialize then, the club’s long-standing interest is set to be revived ahead of the summer market.
It is understood that Goretzka believes the pace and physicality of the Premier League would be an ideal fit for his dynamic, box-to-box style of play. This specific ambition is seen as a significant boost to Arsenal’s prospects as they look to add proven experience and quality to Mikel Arteta’s midfield options.
Despite interest from Serie A giants AC Milan, Juventus, and Napoli, the allure of England—and a project like Arsenal’s—now appears to be the leading factor for the seasoned campaigner as he plans the next chapter of his career.
