The Times are reporting that Arsene Wenger is looking at bringing in Sevilla’s Grzegorz Krychowiak. The Polish international is one of the options Arsenal are weighing up to fill their hole at defensive midfield. Despite only spending a year in La Liga, the Europa League winner could be tempted by the proposition of playing for a club as big as Arsenal.

Arsenal have been linked to defensive midfielders for years now and, despite the shock emergence of Francis Coquelin, they could still do with one. For as good as Coquelin is, they’ll still have to rely on the one of Mathieu Flamini or Mikel Arteta if something happens to the young Frenchman. Both Flamini and Arteta are aging and are rumored to be leaving the club this summer. That leaves a hole that Krychowiak could fill very nicely.

As said above, Arsenal have been linked to a plethora of defensive midfielders, so this link is no surprise. The Times have reported that Arsene Wenger likes the Pole as a possible alternative to Morgan Schneiderlin if Southampton refuse to lower their asking price for the highly coveted Frenchman. They are also reporting that Krychowiak has a £21m buyout clause in his contract. After impressing in Spain, the set fee could tempt Arsene Wenger into opening his cheque book.
