The Gunners spent big this summer on some exciting new signings such as Alexis Sanchez, Danny Welbeck and Mathieu Debuchy, but were also linked with a number of other players and moves that didn’t manage to go through before the summer transfer deadline in the end.

Still, Arsene Wenger is keeping an eye on some ambitious targets for next summer, and the Frenchman looks set to take full advantage of the contract situations of two star players at Real Madrid.

Having spent big on bringing Mesut Ozil to the Emirates Stadium from the Bernabeu in a £42.5m deal last year, this would represent a highly astute piece of business if he can pull it off, with the two players in question adding superb experience and know-how to this Arsenal squad.

1) Sami Khedira

According to recent reports in the Daily Mirror, Sami Khedira remains a top target for Arsenal after being linked with them several times this summer. The German international has not managed to agree on a new contract with Real Madrid and is into the final year of his current deal, which would allow him to walk away for free next season. It is also said that he could be joined by his fellow countryman Marco Reus, with Arsenal interested in activating his £27.5m release clause at Borussia Dortmund.

2) Iker Casillas

Another unsettled Real Madrid star Iker Casillas is also being tipped to join Arsenal next season as he also enters the final year of his contract at the Bernabeu. Spanish source Fichajes.net suggests that a deal may already be in place for the legendary goalkeeper to complete his move to the Emirates Stadium, with Keylor Navas set to become number one for Carlo Ancelotti’s side. The 33-year-old may no longer be at the peak of his powers, but there’s no question that he could make a superb signing for Arsenal even at this stage of his career, providing good competition for Wojciech Szczesny and David Ospina.
