Mustafi transfer to Arsenal on the rocks

However, Bulut has been speaking to German football website Kicker today, and has disregarded his apparent comments in Spox, much to the disappointment of Arsenal fans.

‘There are discussions but there’s no agreement between Mustafi and Arsenal, or between both clubs.’

The former Everton trainee was one of Europe’s best players last season and his performances for both club and country have attracted attention from the world’s best.

    – Shkodran Mustafi made more clearances (160) and interceptions (133) than any other Valencia player last season in La Liga. Leader.

After impressing for Sampdoria following his departure from Everton, Mustafi joined Valencia in the summer of 2014 following the World Cup in Brazil.

Since then, the centre-back has been one of the team’s biggest leaders and has been largely comfortable against quality offensive opposition, of which he has faced many in La Liga.

Featuring in a team with a particularly soft spine, Mustafi’s above statistics prove that he truly is the commander he is described as, and would be a fantastic addition to Arsenal.

However, it seems that Gooners have a way to go yet until they have their man.
