According to reports from Italy (via the Metro), Juventus and AC Milan are currently keeping tabs on Arsenal midfielder Santi Cazorla.

Santi Cazorla was signed by Arsenal from Malaga back in the summer of 2012 and the midfielder has proven to be a very crucial player for the Gunners since his arrival.

The versatile Spaniard was used an attacking role early on in his Arsenal career but following the arrivals of Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil, he has successfully transitioned into a midfield player who dictates the play for the Gunners.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny has revealed that he wants to end his career at the Emirates or at former club Lorient.

Arsenal signed Laurent Koscielny from French Ligue 1 outfit Lorient during the summer of 2010 and it would be fair to state that the defender was an unknown quantity to many fans in England.

While Koscielny had done fairly well in France prior to his arrival to Arsenal, many were skeptical as to whether the central defender would be able to thrive in the extremely physical nature of the Premier League.

As reported by talkSPORT, Arsenal are planning to send out Lucas Perez on loan during the upcoming January transfer window.

Arsenal were linked with a host of high profile strikers during the summer and after much speculation, the Gunners ended up signing Lucas Perez from Deportivo La Coruna for a fee believed to be in the region of around £17.1 million.

Perez had enjoyed a decent season with Deportivo prior to his move to Arsenal and it was expected that the Spaniard could prove to be a very good addition to the star studded Gunners’ attacking lineup.

According to reports from talkSPORT, Arsenal are currently on high alert regarding a potential move for long time target Julian Draxler as the attacker is made available for transfer.

Arsenal have been widely linked with a move for Julian Draxler on numerous occasions and it did seem like the Gunners would finally be able to secure the services of the German international this summer.

Following the conclusion of the 2016 European Championships, Draxler had publicly gone on to state that he wanted to leave Wolfsburg for a bigger club.

 

Arsenal are already preparing for Alexis Sanchez’s potential exit by eyeing up a swoop for Marco Reus, according to reports from the Daily Mirror.

It is customary for teams to commence talks over a new contract with their prized assets once they enter the final 18 months of their respective deals and Arsenal are currently doing just that by negotiating new terms will Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez.

After long drawn talks, it does look like Arsenal will be able to agree on a contract extension for Ozil worth £200,000-per-week but worryingly, things are not quite clear cut in regards to Sanchez’s current situation.
