Former Arsenal captain Granit Xhaka may soon find himself playing in the Premier League once again.

This comes as Xhaka was linked to a return to the English domestic league after he was offered the chance to return by Sunderland.

Xhaka, now 32 years old was a key figure at Emirates Stadium before he left for Bayer Leverkusen in 2023.

While in the German league, Xhaka won the Bundesliga title with Leverkusen after an unbeaten season.

Despite finding success in the German league, it looks like the Swiss is now ready for another transfer.

While Saudi Pro League club, Neom SC, have also been linked with moves for Xhaka, report via Sky Sports disclosed that Sunderland are the favourite to sign him.

It was reported that Sunderland have offered Xhaka a three-year contract.

The English side have also commenced negotiations with Leverkusen over the transfer which would cost them around €10million.

Recall that Xhaka joined Arsenal from Borussia Monchengladbach in 2016. He was at Emirates for seven years where he lifted two FA Cups in his 297 appearances.

The Swiss exited Arsenal in 2023 to join Leverkusen. Last season, he made 49 appearance for the German side, including 10 of their Champions League matches.
