Arsenal FC continue to strengthen for next season after the signing of Granit Xhaka for 45million Euros.

The Gunners have set their sight on Napoli’s defender, Kalidou Koulibaly. He has been long on the note pad of trainer, Arsene Wenger. But now a deal for him is about to be tidied up, according to the Telegraph.

This has become necessary in view of the fact that Per Mertesacker’s contract expires next summer. Plus the fact that Laurent Koscielny is no longer among the youngest. Gabriel has not proven that he is an able replacement.Arsenal must cough out 26 million Euros for the 24 year old Senegal international.

Also Wenger is pressing to get his dream striker, Alvaro Morata, currently on loan at Juventus, from Real Madrid. Real, it is gathered, will only let him go to London on a 50 million Euros ticket.
