Arsenal face a decision over the future of Granit Xhaka.
The Gunners ace is a wanted man with Roma now hoping to lure him over to the Italian capital this summer.
Jose Mourinho is believed to be a big fan of Xhaka, and is now pushing to sign the Swiss ace after five years at Arsenal.
Xhaka has divided opinion for a long time now, and some believe that this is the right time for him to move on and find another club.
Roma don’t have a huge budget though, and Corriere dello Sport report that Roma would be willing to pay around £13million plus Amadou Diawara to secure Xhaka.
That leaves Arsenal with a dilemma; do they pursue more money or bring in a player that wouldn’t really be a starter for Mikel Arteta in the hope of eventually developing him.
Diawara was a hot prospect at Napoli, but he only started seven games for Roma last season and seemingly isn’t wanted.
At just 23, the Guinean ace is far from a lost cause, and some Arsenal fans think this could be an ‘interesting’ move.
Supporters have been taking to Twitter to suggest that Diawara is a ‘perfect’ replacement for Mohamed Elneny and is a ‘quality’ player.
Others begged Arsenal to strike the deal and bolster the holding midfield options whilst also bringing in cash for Xhaka to reinvest in another midfield option.
