Roma chief Tiago Pinto will push Arsenal for an answer today over the sale of Granit Xhaka.

Arsenal are seeking at least €15m to sell the Switzerland midfielder, while Roma have so far offered €12m.

Further muddying the waters was Gunners manager Mikel Arteta on Sunday, when declaring he wanted Xhaka to stay.

Gazzetta dello Sport says Tiago will hold more talks today over Xhaka's situation with Arsenal.

Should Arsenal intimate Xhaka will be staying, Tiago is ready to turn to Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Denis Zakaria as an alternative.
