Transfer News: Arsenal star set to leave this summer amid interest from Bayer Leverkusen

Arsenal defender Sead Kolasinac is purportedly set to hold talks with Bayer Leverkusen soon over a potential return of the Bundesliga.

The 27-year-old has battled to hold down a spot down under Mikel Arteta, falling behind Kieran Tierney, Ainsley Maitland-Niles and Bukayo Saka in the wing-back positions.

Sead Kolasinac has been given the green light to leave Arsenal this summer transfer window and, there are reports, Bayer Leverkusen are leading the race to sign the 27-year-old.

Arsenal sporting director Edu is said to be happy to get £9m for the Bosnia-Herzegovina defender, ruling Schalke 04 out of contention to sign Sead Kolasinac.

Sead Kolasinac was at Schalke 04 for five years before joining Arsenal, where he has made many appearances in all competitions since 2017.
