Konstantinos Mavropanos' time at Arsenal could be over before it ever got going, with five Bundesliga sides reportedly interested in a summer move.
The 22-year-old had made just eight appearances for the north London side before moving to Bundesliga 2 club Nurnberg on loan in January.
The powerful centre-back has impressed in Germany, making 10 starts and keeping three clean-sheets for the relegation battlers and attracting attention from the top division, according to Goal.

Mavropanos would reportedly favour remaining at Arsenal, but could be tempted by Germany due to the lack of playing time likely to be on offer under Mikel Arteta.
