It is understood that both Nacho Monreal and Santi Cazorla are on Atletico Madrid’s summer shopping list. Atletico who won La Liga last year have got cash to burn with the sales of Diego Costa and Luis Filipe to Chelsea.
Monreal is understood to be concerned that he may start the season as Kieran Gibbs understudy which therefore, means a move to Atletico would appeal to him especially with them now needing a left back.
Arsenal may also be willing to accept an offer for Cazorla especially if the offer is attractive. The main reason for this being is Cazorla turns 30 in December however; he has just recently signed a new deal. Cazorla again may not be a guaranteed starter after the signing of Alexis Sanchez.

Arsene Wenger is set to break open the chequebook one more time.
Wenger has already bucked his frugal trend by splashing the cash on mercurial star Alexis Sanchez from Barcelona and Bacary Sagna replacement Mathieu Debuchy from Newcastle to put the current spend at £48million.
That too couples with last summer’s £42.5million investment in World Cup winner Mesut Ozil, and it is an international teammate of his who supposedly tops The Professor’s wishlist for the remainder of the summer.

After the excitement of signing Sanchez, news that Remy and Khedira will not be joining has brought the euphoria levels down a notch or two. The worry is that Wenger will revert back to form and we will see another frustrating summer of top targets being passed over due to high wage demands.
We had the opportunity to buy Suarez last season and had we done so, we would be celebrating another famous double, not just the FA cup. Had we bought Benteke, Ba or Michu, we would have had a chance. Instead we paid top dollar for Ozil and then scrimped and saved on Sanogo.
