Bayern Munich to poach critical Arsenal star

|

Arsenal’s contract talks with key defender Laurent Koscielny could be put under increasing pressure as Bayern Munich are reportedly interested in signing the centre-half, according to The Express.

The France international is entering the lat 12 months of his current deal at the Emirates Stadium, with an extension not yet signed.

As such, Bayern are believed to be keeping an eye on the situation and feel the powerful enforcer could well be an additional option at the heart of their rearguard to compete with Mats Hummels and Jerome Boateng.

Koscielny has been on international duty with France at Euro 2016 this summer and after the tournament has been sent on an extended break, which could well see him struggling for match fitness before the start of the new campaign.

The Frenchman is an important member of Arsene Wenger’s squad and arguably the best defender available to the North London team.
