Arsene Wenger prepare £30m raid for French star

Arsenal are reporedly set to renew their interest in long-term target Karim Benzema in the upcoming transfer window.

Benzema has been in good form for the La Liga giants this season, and it is understood that the Frenchman would consider a fresh challenge in a new league as he is not a fans' favourite at the Bernabeu.

 

According to The Telegraph, Los Blancos are willing to allow the sale of the 26-year-old instead of losing in on a free at the end of the next campaign.

 

The report adds that the North London club would have to pay a hefty fee in the region of £30m to secure Benzema's services this summer.
