Fabio Coentrao could be Arsenal-bound

The Portugal defender is surplus to requirements in Spain and Arsene Wenger wants him to bolster his back line.

Wenger often rotates between Nacho Monreal and Kieran Gibbs, but the addition of Coentrao could see one of those leave the Emirates.

The 26-year-old has 47 international caps and, having been at the Bernabeu since 2011, has won one La Liga title and the Champions League.

And, according to reports in Spain, Arsenal could make a £20m summer move.

Wenger has also been linked with moves for Sami Khedira, also at Madrid, and Guillermo Ochoa, currently at Malaga.
