Arsenal look set to END their interest in Sami Khedira following the World Cup-winning midfielder’s demand to become the club’s best-paid player.

Arsene Wenger wants to make the £23.5million Germany superstar his second major signing of the window following the £33m capture of Alexis Sanchez last week.

But, even though Khedira has just a year left on his contract at Real Madrid, the Gunners are not willing to be held to ransom by his demands for £150,000-a-week before bonuses.

The salary would lift the 27-year-old - who has so far rejected a new deal at the European champions - above the likes of Sanchez and Mesut Ozil, both of whom are on around £130,000-a-week.

Elsewhere, Arsenal expect to sign TWO right-backs this week - France international Mathieu Debuchy of Newcastle and Atletico Madrid youngster Javier Manquillo.

The capture of Debuchy is dependent on the Magpies completing a £6m deal to sign Feyenoord World Cup star Daryl Janmaat to replace Debuchy.

Manquillo, 20, can play on either flank and in midfield.

The arrivals of the two players will mean a loan move for the Gunners' young right-back Carl Jenkinson, to gain more top flight playing experience.

Wenger remains keen on a £3m move for Colombia World Cup keeper David Ospina after relegated Cardiff demanded a massive £10m for David Marshall.
