Reigning Italian champions Juventus are preparing for life without Sami Khedira in the upcoming season, it has been reported.
Juventus have signed Adrien Rabiot on a free transfer, and Khedira is expected to be shown the exit door, it has been claimed by Calcio Mercato.
The Old Lady have also acquired the services of Aaron Ramsey on a free transfer, so expect a few departures as the Serie A champions might look to balance the books.
Khedira has been a fine servant of the game, and still has few good years left in him.
Here are three Premier League clubs who should consider signing him.
Arsenal
It’s no secret that Emery is working on a tight budget, Khedira is perhaps a good option as he won’t cost a lot of money.
The German is a serial winner, and hinted his intention to play in the Premier League last year.
Khedira is an astute passer of the ball, and would add more calmness and composure to the Arsenal midfield. He is immensely experienced, and is exactly what the Gunners midfield needs.
Newcastle United
Everton are currently in an exciting phase, and a player like Khedira would add a lot more experience and stability to the midfield.
Strong with his passing, the German would be ideal to have in a deeper role with players like Andre Gomes and Gylfi Sigurdsson playing in advanced roles.
He will come cheap as well, and would be a statement signing by the Toffees.
Bournemouth
Although Eddie Howe has Jefferson Lerma in the squad, he needs another central midfielder to sit deep and soak the pressure. Khedira could be a welcome addition as he is a canny operator in midfield.
The German international is decisive with his tackles, and can control the tempo of the game, something the Cherries lacked last season despite showing good promise in the attacking phases of games.
The Cherries have lacked a bit of experience, and if Howe is to take this team higher up the table, they would need a player of Khedira’s calibre and know-how in the midfield.
