Arsenal have recently been linked to Real Madrid and German international defensive midfielder Sami Khedira. The Mirror reports that he could be available for as little as £15 million due to only having one year left on his contract.
In terms of quality and positioning, the German is exactly what we need-- an aggressive hard-hitting midfielder to add some bite back into the centre of the park. His quality is evident, he was virtually an ever-present in the Madrid side last season, but this season has been out with injury.
However, he was valued high enough by Ancelotti to start in the Champions League final and has also made the Germany Rio World Cup squad. At the price he represents a bargain, the question being whether Ancelotti would let him leave.
