Reports suggest that AC Milan in Italy are also targeting Goretzka, while clubs across England and Spain, including Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, and <em><strong>ARSENAL<\/strong><\/em>have been linked with the free-agent midfielder.<\/p>\n<p>Goretzka\u2019s availability on a Bosman deal has made him particularly attractive to clubs looking to add experience and physical presence to their midfield without paying a transfer fee.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why Arsenal Will Be Watching Closely<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For <em><strong>ARSENAL<\/strong><\/em>monitoring this situation makes strategic sense even if Goretzka isn\u2019t a confirmed target. The Gunners have been linked with strengthening their midfield as they look to build on a strong 2025-26 campaign and sustain challenges on multiple fronts, including the Premier League and Champions League next season. With Goretzka\u2019s experience, leadership, and box-to-box qualities, he fits the profile of a player who could add balance to a squad already brimming with young talent.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, if Fenerbah\u00e7e or other rivals secure Goretzka early, Arsenal\u2019s options and timing in the market could be affected. The Gunners and other Premier League clubs often monitor free-agent targets to avoid losing out to overseas offers that might lure experienced players away from England.<\/p>\n<p>Keeping a close eye on negotiations could help Arsenal make rapid decisions if Goretzka becomes available and aligns with their tactical and financial plans next summer.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>MORE ARSENAL NEWS AND GOSSIP \u2013 <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Latest: <strong>\u2018I Really Like Arsenal\u2019: Brazilian International unashamedly opens door to Emirates move!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Most Read:\u00a0Agent OFFICIALLY confirms Arsenal favourites to sign \u00a370M star<\/p>\n<p>Must Check Out: <strong>Agent confirms Arsenal favs sign striker \u2013 Brazilian tells Arsenal he wants move \u2013 Prem star opens door Emirates move<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>LOVE ARSENAL?
