Granit Xhaka made 31 Premier League appearances last term, and has been handed an important role in midfield at Arsenal by Mikel Arteta. However, the Switzerland international could be on the move this summer, with the Gunners slapping a price tag on his head. Arsenal have reportedly named their price for defensive-minded midfielder Granit Xhaka amid interest from Jose Mourinho to bring him to Roma. Former Tottenham boss Mourinho will take charge of Roma from the 2021/22 season, and has already begun plotting his new squad. But now he is looking to a former rival player in Xhaka, who was a regular for Mikel Arteta this season after falling out of favour towards the end of 2019.
