Off to Arsenal?

Arda Turan is already on the way out according to recent reports. He has agreed terms with Arsenal and is waiting for the clubs to agree on a fee for him.

Barcelona want €30 million for the Turkish international, for whom they paid €34 million 2 seasons ago. However, the Gunners are willing to fork out just €25 million for him, and the talks are stalled.

Despite all this, he is certainly not going to be at Camp Nou next season. Valverde does not see him as a part of his squad and has made it clear to the board.

Apart from Arsenal, Inter Milan, Galatasaray and several Chinese Super League clubs are ready to sign him. The forward however is keen on joining Arsenal as he wants to play in the Premier League.
