Arsenal are tipped as the favourites to sign Zenit Saint Petersburg defender Ezequiel Garay this summer, with rumours that they have made a £13m bid for the Argentine.
The Russian giants may ask for more money for the 28-year-old, but it seems that Arsenal are the leading contenders to snap him up and add the experienced defender to their options in the back four.
Arsene Wenger’s side struggled defensively for much of last season, and Garay certainly has the quality to give the team a bit more solidity in that area, with Chelsea and Manchester United also big fans of the player.
According to the Metro, Garay himself is unhappy with life at Zenit and that could help force this proposed move to the Emirates Stadium through.
