Arsenal target Granit Xhaka 'flies to London for talks'

A report claims that Switzerland international Granit Xhaka has arrived in London ahead of talks with Arsenal over a switch from Borussia Monchengladbach.

Borussia Monchengladbach ace Granit Xhaka will hold talks with Arsenal this weekend over a potential summer move, according to a report.

The 23-year-old, who this week admitted that he 'dreams' of playing in the Premier League, is said to have flown into London on Friday afternoon.

A new defensive midfielder is thought to be top of Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger's wishlist, and it has been claimed by ESPN that Xhaka could now be on his way to the Emirates Stadium.

Gladbach director Max Eberl revealed earlier this week that an offer had been received from an unnamed club, with the Switzerland international adding that he was hopeful of sorting his future prior to Euro 2016.

Xhaka found the net three times for Gladbach this season, while also setting up a further two goals in the Bundesliga and Champions League.
