The next Granit Xhaka- Who is Arsenal target Florian Grillitsch as Mikel Arteta demands transfer

Arsenal are expected to have a very busy summer transfer window, as manager Mikel Arteta plans to continue moulding the squad into one that fully represents his footballing identity.

Both the Spaniard and technical director Edu were criticised for the recruitment strategy taken last summer, with many questioning whether the club had actually improved their squad. But despite a couple of poor results suffered in the Gunners' last two fixtures, it's fair to say that their summer arrivals have impressed Aaron Ramsdale, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Ben White, and Martin Odegaard, all producing consistent league performances.

Ahead of the upcoming window, strengthening the team's engine room is imperative, and a whole host of names have been linked with a move to the Emirates, one of which is Hoffenheim midfielder Florian Grillitsch. The Austria international's deal with the Bundesliga side is set to expire at the end of June, meaning that he will be able to negotiate with foreign clubs over a pre-contract agreement.
