Arsenal are reportedly awaiting an offer from Real Madrid for left-back Riccardo Calafiori.
Calafiori has been a key player for the Gunners over the past couple of seasons despite his injury concerns.
He remains highly valued by manager Mikel Arteta, but this has not ended speculation over a possible departure.
New Madrid manager Jose Mourinho has requested Los Blancos to make an approach for Calafiori's services.
The Times now claim that the Gunners are awaiting a proposal from Madrid for Calafiori, but it is not certain they will accept it.
Calafiori was signed by Arsenal from Bologna for £42 million in 2024, and his stock has risen with his standout performances.
The Premier League holders could be reluctant to part ways with his services unless they receive a significant transfer bid.
It could take a £65-70m package to persuade Arsenal to contemplate his exit.
Calafiori is said to be happy in London, and has yet to show any desire to join Los Blancos despite initial contact with his camp.
