months. Howedes’s International colleague Mats Hummels has been one of the top
target of Arsenal.

centre-back is valued around £15 million, according to media.

skipper who will face Real Madrid in the round of 16 of the Champions League in
February is going to play alongside with his international teammates Lukas
Podolski, Mesut Ozil and Per Mertesacker if he joins the Emirates side.

role at the defensive position.

can also play as a left-back when need, one of his best quality is of being
versatile which could be proved to be a big positive point for the Gunners.
