Arsenal set to meet €25m release clause to sign BuLi star

Arsenal are reportedly ready to meet the release clause of Wolfsburg’s highly rated left-back Ricardo Rodriguez. Having already completed a deal for Granit Xhaka, it seems like the North London giants are aiming to sign his Swiss international teammate as well.

According to German newspaper Kicker, Arsenal are willing to meet Rodriguez’s €25m release clause. The 23-year-old has enjoyed a superb campaign for Wolfsburg this season and many will see the €25m valuation of his release clause as nothing but a major bargain.

He still has another three years left to run on his contract at the Volkswagen Arena but the Gunners need to move quickly as his release clause is only valid until June.
