Arsenal rumoured to be in talks over summer move for Feyenoord sensation Orkun Kokcu

According to the Daily Mail, Orkun Kokcu has emerged as a priority transfer target for Mikel Arteta in the summer.

The report says Arsenal are eager to make use of the uncertainty over the attacking midfielder's future and snap him up.

Feyenoord are eager to tie him down to a new deal even though he signed a contract extension a year ago on March 12. They fear the 19-year-old will be lured away by more lucrative terms from big clubs, which they will be unable to match.

The Dutch-born Turk is considered among the most promising young players in Europe and is expected to make the national team's squad for Euro 2020.

The Daily Mail claims that the Gunners, in turn, will try to land him before the tournament kicks off to sign him at a reasonable price.

Kokcu's prefers to play in a number 10 position where he can showcase his brilliant vision, great dribbling and sharp passing. The young man can also carry out functions as a box-to-box midfielder. Orkun is also a skilful set-piece taker.
