Few weeks back it was reported that Arsenal have agreed a fee with Read Madrid to sign their central midfielder Sami Khedira but any possible agreement failed to materialize as Arsenal believe Khedira’s wage demands are too high for them to agree.
Some reports even claimed that Arsenal have moved on from their German target, but talkSPORT presenter Stan Collymore insists Arsenal are still the favorites to sign the World Cup winner. Stan Collymore is a reliable source for transfers as he was the one who first leaked (in Twitter) about Arsenal’s interest in Khedira.
Gooners, haven't forgotten you. Khedira still 100% on, whatever anyone else tells you.

Few other reports from Spain concludes that Khedira will play out his contract at Real Madrid before returning to his home country (next season) to join the German champions Bayern Munich.
