The German international has been strongly linked with both clubs in the last few months as he has made the decision to quit the Bernabeu for a new challenge.

Arsenal have been in need of quality in that defensive midfield role, with Kheidra long looking like being Arsene Wenger’s top target due to his uncertain situation at Real.
