Sevilla to rival Arsenal for Orkun Kokcu?

Sevilla are reportedly ready to rival Arsenal in the race to sign Feyenoord midfielder Orkun Kokcu this summer.

The Gunners are understood to have identified the 19-year-old as a potential transfer target when the window reopens, while Feyenoord are open to selling him in order to aid their finances in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak.

The Dutch outfit are holding out for a bid of £25m, and sporting director Frank Arnesen has revealed that four clubs, including Sevilla, are interested in his services.

"There are no offers. But we are aware of Sevilla's interest," he is quoted as saying by the Daily Mail.

"We have held meetings, and there are four clubs interested in him, one of them is Sevilla. There is nothing official yet, and no offers have been received."

Kokcu has established himself as a key member of the Feyenoord first team this season, scoring three goals and assisting six in 35 outings across all competitions.
