According to The Sun, Arsenal gaffer Arsene Wenger is seriously interested in signing PSV playmaker Ibrahim Afellay. The Gunners are ready to table an €8million offer for the highly-rated midfielder.
However, it remains to be seen if the Eindhoven side will even consider such an offer. Afellay was repeatedly linked to Italian giants Roma last summer and PSV boss Jan Reker set an asking price of €15million for the Holland international.
Wenger has been searching for another midfielder for a while, following the departures of Mathieu Flamini and Aliaksandr Hleb, but failed to satisfy the Arsenal supporters with a new midfield signing in the summer.
The French manager especially admires Afellay's versatility and a January move could be possible if PSV are willing to enter into negotiations.
Afellay is a product of the PSV youth academy and made his debut in 2003. The 22-year-old has already made 87 league appearances for the Eredivisie side, netting 16 times. He has also won several international caps with Oranje.
