Carvajal told Izvestia: “We have had some contacts with Anzhi [Makhachkala], they were ready to make a good offer, but my client wants to play in England, so the transfer to Russia was not possible.
"We are in talks with Arsenal, he could join them in June.”
The 27-year-old has played over 250 games for Bilbao, and looks to join Fernando Llorente, who has agreed to join Juventus, in leaving the club on a Bosman at the end of the season.

TERRIFIC STOP FROM NEUER! Just moments after a corner forced by a long-range strike from Lewandowski, Gundogan angles the ball wide to Reus, who picks out Blaszczykowski at the near post. The latter connects with the cross first time, but Neur is equal to it. That was a fine reaction save, but Dortmund should be ahead. And you know what, Dortmund deserve to be ahead. We're 15 minutes in but Bayern haven't started yet.
7:59 PM BST
Nothing to get too excited about just yet from a Dortmund perspective, but they are looking more purposeful than their heavily-fancied opponents, and Blaszczykowski has just had the first real shot in anger. It was a dreadful attempt, to be fair, but there's no denying that Dortmund have demonstrated the greater attacking intent thus far.

Bit of a cagey opening at Wembley. Hardly surprising, of course. Familiarity breeds contempt, as these two have shown in recent years, but it also breeds caution and it is worth remembering that both of their Bundesliga meetings this seasoned ended all-square.
