Arsenal face an uphill battle to prise Julian Weigl away from Borussia Dortmund.

The Gunners have been watching the 20 year-old, who has been a revelation for BVB this season.

Weigl's passing game would suit Arsene Wenger's system and are their plans to move for the midfielder.

However, BVB management is unlikely to consider any offer for the youngster this summer.

BVB coach Thomas Tuchel plans to hand Weigl more responsibility next season, particularly if Ilkay Gundogan leaves for Manchester City.
