Arsenal could be set to make a move for VfL Wolfsburg midfielder Luiz Gustavo, according to reports.

The Daily Mirror claims that manager Arsene Wenger sent scouts to watch him play in Friday’s 2-1 defeat to Bayern Munich, as he ponders whether to push ahead with a bid.

With Mikel Arteta injured, Arsenal could seemingly use a proven holding midfielder, while Lukas Podolski is believed to be wanted by Wolfsburg and could be offered as a makeweight.
