Xhaka keen to hone his skills under ‘world class’ Arsenal trio

Bournemouth coach Eddie Howe, who recently convinced Gunners star Jack Wilshere to move to the Cherries on loan, is another understood to be on their short-list. Arsenal dug in their heels by making it clear to potential purchasers there was no way he would be sold this summer.

When asked how he reacted on his first meeting with Wenger, Xhaka said: “I felt pure excitement!” Ozil, Sanchez and Cazorla for example, are huge personalities.

Perez was a target for Everton but Arsenal beat them to the deal.

Things like their work ethic and ambition are impressive. “Every training session, every sprint, every exercise must be done to the best your ability”.

“You become aware of the global perception of Arsenal when you’re on the tour of the USA”.

“Everywhere we went there were huge crowds waiting, that’s when you can grasp the incredible size of this club”, he said.

The Gunners have always been criticised for their injury record, but Xhaka said no efforts are spared when it comes to looking after the squad’s fitness.

The paper claims the two players are good pals within the Germany worldwide set-up and that Mustafi’s arrival could spur on Ozil to pledge his future to the Gunners. “They pay attention to every detail”. The food and the service, everything’s geared perfectly to each other.

Both players have less than two years remaining on their current deals, and will no doubt have a strong position when it comes to the talks, and as much as we don’t want to lose either at all, we especially don’t want to lose either for free! There’s nothing you can hide. “The doctors cover all bases”.
