Talks between Arsenal and Monchengladbach are said to be at an advanced stage.
Meanwhile, The Sun on Sunday say Italian club Roma are considering making a bid for Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech.
The former Chelsea man has been touted as a possible replacement for Brazil international Alisson, who recently left Roma to join Liverpool.
Cech has also been linked with a possible return to Chelsea, where there are doubts over the future of keeper Thibaut Courtois.
Courtois, who has been offered a new deal by Chelsea, has long been linked with a move to Real Madrid, while Cech’s future at Arsenal is in doubt following the Gunners’ signing of Bernd Leno.
Cech’s agent Viktor Kolar recently played down reports that a move could be in the pipeline.
Kolar was quoted as saying: “It is always busy during every transfer window around Petr Cech, as a great Premier League person. However, he maximally focuses on the new season at Arsenal, no specific offer is available.”
