ROLLS REUS...

Arsenal have been handed a major boost in their quest to sign Borussia Dortmund's creative midfielder Marco Reus. According to a report in the Daily Star, the 25-year-old is keen to work with Gunners' manager Arsene Weneger.

Reus, who reportedly has a £20m buy-out clause that becomes active in the summer, has been linked with moves to Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea.

Gaya in demand...

Wenger will meet Jose Luis Gaya's £13.5m release clause as he looks to beat Real Madrid and Barcelona to the 19-year-old Valencia left-back's signature, according to the Daily Express.

New deal for Otamendi...

Valencia have also offered Nicolas Otamendi a new contract in order to fend off interest from Manchester United and Arsenal, according to the Sunday Mirror.

Still in for Schneiderlin...

The Southampton midfielder Morgan Schneiderlin continues to be linked with a move to Arsenal. The Gunners have targeted the 25-year-old Frenchman since last summer.

Spurs favourites for Reid...

Tottenham will steal a march on their great rivals Arsenal and sign West Ham defender Winston Reid tomorrow, according to reports.

The Gunners had been linked with a move for the New Zealand international, but it appears they have cooled their interest after the signing of Gabriel Paulista.
