The German youngster is a highly regarded talent after his recent rise in the Stuttgart first-team, and this has seen him strongly linked with a move to Stamford Bridge this season.
However, that may now be unlikely as the player has revealed he would love the chance to sign for the Gunners, his boyhood team.
“I have always dreamed of the Premier League,” he said.
“I have been following Arsenal since the days of Henry and Bergkamp. I watch videos of Arsenal all the time on YouTube and I often wear the current Alexis Sanchez shirt.
“My heart beats for Arsenal.”
