According to Monaco manager, Leonardo Jardim, Geoffrey Kondogbia could be allowed to leave for financial reasons this summer.
It is believed that Monaco are primed for a clear out in order to raise some funds and Kondogbia, along with a few other players are expendables.
The former Sevilla man has been linked with several moves away from France and Arsenal are thought to be keen admirers. Wenger is desperate to strengthen his midfield this summer and Kondogbia is an ideal upgrade on the likes of Flamini and Arteta.
The robust defensive midfielder will add much needed defensive cover and tenacity to Arsenal’s midfield, much like Matic at Chelsea.
