The north Londoners have been linked with a move for Gundogan in recent times, with the 32-year-old's contract at the Etihad Stadium set to expire at the end of the current campaign. That means if he doesn't extend his deal, he would be available on a free transfer, something that would undoubtedly excite Gunners boss Mikel Arteta.
