Jose Mourinho's Roma 'to return for Arsenal's Granit Xhaka this summer' after missing out on him last year... with the Swiss midfielder 'keen on moving to the Stadio Olimpico'

Roma are set to return for Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka this summer after missing out on him last year, according to reports.

Jose Mourinho's side targeted the Swiss midfielder in the last summer transfer window but failed to agree terms with the Gunners, who kept the 29-year-old in Mikel Arteta's squad for the current season.

Former captain Xhaka has remained an integral part of Arsenal's team, making 10 Premier League appearances for the Gunners so far this season, though his campaign has been disrupted by an ACL injury sustained in September as well as disciplinary problems.
