Arsenal are preparing a momentous bid to bring a former star back to the Emirates Stadium this summer, according to reports.
The Gunners find themselves second-favourites for the Premier League title, four points behind Manchester City after leading for much of the race – and manager Mikel Arteta has reportedly identified the midfield as an area of weakness. Thomas Partey has been dropped for the last two matches and beyond the No.8 axis of Granit Xhaka and Martin Odegaard, there is a lack of depth.
