During the summer there was plenty of talk linking Real Madrid attacking midfielder with a move to either Liverpool or Manchester City, yet now for some reason the 23-year-old former Malaga player where he was coached by Manuel Pellegrini is being linked with a move to Arsenal, a club you would think has a wealth of attacking midfielders already.
Spanish sports new outlet Fichajes says Wenger is ready to urge the Arsenal board to make an offer for his services, while knowing that Real Madrid would only entertain offers around the £38 million mark.
The report goes on to say that the talented No.10 is struggling to find game time with James Rodriguez and Mateo Kovacic in Rafa Benitez’s team and that he could very well be poised for a January exit.
Should this in fact be the case Arsenal could find themselves battling both Manchester City and Liverpool for the boy from Benalmádena.
