With a £35million move to Arsenal very much in the offing, these are feverishly exciting times for Shkodran Mustafi.
While the granite-hewn centre-half is still technically a Valencia player, it’s being reported that the 24-year-old passed a medical last week and is now merely sat waiting for the Gunners to make his transfer official.
And, following a conversation with fellow German international Mesut Ozil, it would seem the prospect of moving to North London has got Mustafi all tingly and half-mast:
I have spoken with Mesut, he told me everything
It was all very positive and I was quickly convinced, because I find the club horny.
O…kay then. No wonder Arsenal are dragging their heels over this one.
It could get very awkward, very quickly.
