Gunners told forward is available for £21million
Real Madrid are prepared to sell Jese Rodriguez in January to Premier League outfit Arsenal – but only if they cough up £21million.
According to reports in Spain, the La Liga giants are willing to part ways with the young forward, but only if the interested parties match their asking-price.
Don Balon are reporting the story and they have claimed that it’s Arsenal who are looking most likely of meeting Madrid‘s asking-price of just over £21m.
Premier League Interest
Arsene Wenger is reportedly an admirer of the 22-year-old, despite him struggling to break into the first-team at the Bernabeu, but with injury woes mounting up at the Emirates Stadium, the Frenchman is ready to make additions.
Arsenal already have 10 first-team players out injured, most notably in the attacking region, and Jese could help out for the second-half of the season.
Sadly for the Gunners, they aren’t the only team interested, as Chelsea are also keen on signing the forward in order to help them kick-start their season.
Chelsea currently lie 16th in the Premier League, winning just three of their opening 12 games.
