Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Granit Xhaka seems to have said his farewells to the Bundesliga side.
The 23-year-old Swiss international, a rumoured £33m target for Arsenal, told Bild that he wants his future settled before Euro 2016.
"The circle has been closed,” he said., external
“There are now daily conversations and there will definitely be a decision before the European Championship.
“I played my first competitive match for Borussia (Mönchengladbach) in the cup in Darmstadt. Four wonderful years followed. Now, possibly, my last game in Darmstadt again – the circle has virtually been closed."
