Arsenal in for Mario Gotze?

Arsenal have emerged as surprise suitors for Bayern Munich star Mario Gotze.

The talented midfielder is well known for his World Cup winning goal for the German national side last year.

Sources in Germany reveal that the former BVB star is keen on joining a top side, where he will have more respect for his ability.

League rivals Manchester United have been linked with a player-plus-cash deal for Gotze, with Angel di Maria likely to make a part of the deal.
