Roma boss Jose Mourinho has been handed a timely boost on his reported number one transfer target as attention turns towards the summer transfer window.
Fresh reports have linked the Portuguese boss with reigniting his interest in signing Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka having been frustrated in previous approaches for the Swiss international.
The Gunners have named Alexandre Lacazette as their skipper until the end of the season after Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was stripped of the armband before departing for Barcelona.
