The Gunners have been in talks with the Switzerland international but Borussia Monchengladbach are stalling on the deal until they find a replacement
Xhaka has been courted by Arsene Wenger's side for several months and while Manchester City are the most recent side to show interest in the Swiss midfielder, the player is said to favour a move to Emirates Stadium instead of Pep Guardiola's financial heavyweights.
But Gladbach are stalling on finalising a deal until they sign a replacement for their star midfielder and have set a minimum transfer fee of €43M, which Arsenal have mulled over for the past few weeks.
