Arda TuranArsenal are lining up a £22 million move for Arda Turan after the reports in Spain suggested the Turkish international had a bust up with Ateltico Madrid manage Diego Simeone.

The 28-year-old forward had previously been linked with a move to the Emirates, and the Daily Star suggests the Gunners are now considering making an offer for Turan, who is likely to leave the Vicente Calderon after his alleged altercation with the fiery Simeone.

It is believed the pair had words after Turan threw one of his boots at a linesman during their recent Copa del Rey game against Barcelona, and did not feature in their latest 3-1 La Liga win over Eibar on Saturday.

Liverpool, Manchester United, Paris Saint-Germain, Roma, Dortmund, Inter and AC Milan are also likely to register their interest in the creative Turk.

However, Arsene Wenger is highly unlikely to make a move for Turan, or anywhere else for that matter, before tonight’s deadline. So any potential move will be made over the summer.

    With an array full of offensive players i do not believe Wenger will buy anyone, specially after loaning. Campbell, sanogo and Podolsky. Aznews.co.uk
