The 23-year old Swiss international made the move to Bundesliga from Basel in 2012 and has already made himself a name as one of the best young midfielders in Europe at the moment.
He has also got 41 appearances for his country and is an exciting prospect for the Gunners who are set to let a number of mid-fielder from the squad leave this summer.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger spoke about his admiration towards the 23-year old and spoke about how he can change his team’s fortunes next year.
Arsène Wenger said: “Granit Xhaka is an exciting young player, already with good Champions League and Bundesliga experience.
“We have been watching him for a long time now and he is a player who will add quality to our squad. We wish Granit a good Euro 2016 with Switzerland and look forward to welcoming him to Arsenal ahead of next season,” he added.
Earlier in the week, the midfielder was spotted in London and it is now revealed that he was in the city to undergo a medical ahead of the move to the Premier League.
Though an official price on the transfer is still to be revealed, it is believed that Xhaka will cost Arsenal more than 30 million making him one of the costliest buys for the club in their history.
Do you think Xhaka can help Arsenal win the Premier League title?
