Goretzka Eyes Arsenal Move as Bayern Contract Expires

Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka, 31, will not have his contract renewed this summer and is reportedly leaning toward a move to England, with Arsenal among the clubs watching.

Bayern Munich midfielder Leon Goretzka’s contract will not be extended this summer, leaving the 31‑year‑old in the market. Reports say Arsenal, Atletico Madrid and AC Milan are monitoring his situation, while Bayer Leverkusen have also expressed interest, though the German club faces financial hurdles to match his €10+ million per‑year wage.

Goretzka’s experience, physicality and European pedigree make him an attractive short‑term boost for clubs seeking midfield depth. His apparent preference for a move to England could make Arsenal a natural destination, as the club looks to strengthen its midfield options for the upcoming season.
