Barcelona rival Arsenal as Meyer ready to leave Schalke

Max Meyer is ready to leave Schalke at the end of this season.

The midfielder is off contract in June and BILD says Meyer has decided to leave S04.

Barcelona are in contact with the Germany international's camp - but they're not alone with as many as eight Bosman offers on the table in front of the pint-sized playmaker.

Arsenal are also in contact with Meyer's minders, with club chiefs seeing the attacker as a replacement for Theo Walcott following his move to Everton.

Gunners chief scout Sven Mislintat knows all about Meyer's quality and is eager to bring him to London this summer.
