French magazine France Football reports that Arsenal is looking into purchasing Dan-Axel Zagadou’s contract this summer. It is going to be hard for Arsenal to make an offer for Zags that BVB doesn't like since we have him for 3 more years. While he hasn't been a brick wall on defense, Zagadou is only 20 years old and shows tons of promise. With Mats Hummels to learn from, he will likely improve even more this year. However, if we don’t sell Toprak we will need to sell another CB so that’s really the only way I see Zagadou leaving the team.

Today wraps up the round of 16. The games are Italy-China and Netherlands-Japan.
