Possibly parting ways with Arsenal, after five straight seasons in, Swiss international defensive midfielder Granit Xhaka is reportedly growing into a major target for three clubs around continental Europe: Hertha Berlin, willing to bring him back into German football realms for a long time by now; AS Roma, whose new boss, José Mourinho, has been impressed by Xhaka's skills years long; former club of his Borussia Monchengladbach, adamant over starting their new course with former playmaker of their, now charged with a 5-year long Premier League tenure and experience.

Capable of carving a renewed prominent position in the team for himself, after the whole Unai Emery affair, Xhaka isn't however carrying on a wholly solid regular position, under Mikel Arteta. Still on a deal with Gunners until June 2023, FC Basel alumni, viable as a deep-lying, a mostly tackling pitcher, and even as a left-back if needed, is turning 29 on September 27, and is roughly worth 20 million euros at the time.
