Arsenal are reportedly targeting Inter Milan midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu as an alternative to Leicester City midfielder Youri Tielemans. The 28-year-old's contract at the San Siro expires in 18 months and his future in the Serie A seems set to come to an end.
The Gunners are understood to be in the market for a new central midfielder after Mikel Arteta's side's terrific start to the season. Arsenal sit top of the Premier League table after 14 games following their best start to a league campaign but face tough competition from Manchester City.
Technical director Edu is expected to be a busy man over the winter months to add further depth to Arteta's squad. There are concerns over lack of figures in the middle of the park following previous injuries to Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny this season.
