Gustavo heading to London?

Another playing on Arsene Wenger’s wanted list is Bayern Munich midfielder Luis Gustavo after he has impressed during the first half of the season.

Wenger has seen his squad falter slightly of late and therefore needs to strengthen his side in January. Gustavo is a promising young player who has played twice for his country Brazil since moving from Hoffenheim to Munich for £12 million.

Although Gustavo has been playing well, with the gulf in class and the depth of players Bayern Munich has, the Brazilian is struggling to establish a first team spot in the league.

Gustavo would be able to partner Diaby in midfield and to strengthen his squad as he would fill a role that Alex Song had when he was at the Emirates Stadium.

Wenger would be interested to pay around £10 million for the midfielder. If Luis Gustavo is as good as he is on Fifa he has the potential to be a success for the Gunners and in the Premiership.

Maybe the fact that Gustavo has in the past had disagreements with the Bayern Munich manager be the reason that Wenger has been alerted to the player for a potential move.
