Bayern Munich are keen to find a buyer for Jerome Boateng.
The Sun says Boating looks set to leave Bayern Munich this summer – with the Bundesliga champions “eager" to offload him.
The Bavarians almost flogged the German ace in January, when the Gunners were said to be keen on a deal, but he stayed put to provide back-up in defence.
Arsenal club bosses were reportedly reluctant to seal a deal for the German defender in January due to concerns over his fitness and £196,000-a-week wages.
Despite having seven centre-backs on their books, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta and technical director Edu have identified their backline as their main weakness.
