Arsenal have emerged as rumoured suitors for Borussia Monchengladbach centre-back Nico Elvedi, according to French media outlet Le10Sport, as quoted by Metro.

The Gunners are considering a bid to sign the 23-year-old defender as a potential option to revamp their squad this summer.

The North Londoners are exploring the possibility of getting a deal over the line for the centre-back following his performances for the Bundesliga outfit this term, having made one assist in 23 starts and two substitute appearances this term.

The Switzerland international is being forced to think of alternative options given that Arsenal look likely to miss out on a Champions League next season.

Elvedi, who could be available for around £25m, has just less than 12 months left to run on his contract.

If the deal goes through, the defender could link up with his compatriot Granit Xhaka at The Emirates.
