The German defender who plays for Bayern Leverkusen was a target for Arsene Wenger last summer and it now looks as though they will try and get there man this week after reports Barcelona are ready to make a bid.
Arsene wants to rush through a £19million pound bid for the player, in the hope they can beat Barcelona to secure his signature.
With news that a deal for Sami Khedira highly unlikely, after reports he told Pep Guardiola that he will be joining Munich next summer circulating, Arsene Wenger has turned his attentions elsewhere.
