Less than a week after snapping up Alexis Sanchez from Barcelona, reports in Spain are saying Arsenal have agreed a deal for Sami Khedira.
It was reports last week that Chelsea were planning to hijack the Gunners for the Real Madrid man, but with this latest report, Arenal’s coach, Arsene Wenger has taken the biggest step yet to securing the defensive midfield player after allegedly agreeing a £23m fee with the Spanish giants.
The German international, who missed last night’s World Cup final after suffering an injury in the warm-up, has been a target for Wenger this summer.
According to a report published by Catalan daily newspaper Sport on Monday, 14 July, 2014, the deal between Real Madrid and Arsenal, could see Arsenal drop their interest in Bayer Leverkusen’s Lars Bender.

However, it was reported that Arsenal still have to agree personal terms with Khedira, with the 27-year-old believed to be demanding £150,000-per-week.
If the move goes through, Khedira will join fellow Germans – and now world champions – Mesut Ozil, Lukas Podolski and Per Mertesacker at the Emirates, as well as youngster Serge Gnabry.
