Arsenal could sign German attacker for £21.5m

Arsenal have been handed the chance to sign Julian Brandt when the transfer window reopens this summer.

The Borussia Dortmund attacker was heavily linked with the Gunners in January, but a deal never materialised.

Instead, they ended up signing Martin Odegaard from Real Madrid on loan and he has been a huge hit for them.

The club are looking to keep the Norwegian for next season, but Bild claims that Brandt will be in the transfer market.

Brandt has had a tough campaign with only three goals from 34 appearances and Dortmund are willing to listen to offers.

Brandt's deal does not expire until June 2024, but he will be available for only £21m in the next transfer window.

The Gunners had a concern with creativity during the first half of the season where they were languishing in 15th. 

That has been sorted with the emergence of Emile Smith Rowe, who has impressed alongside Bukayo Saka and Odegaard.
