Arsenal will have to fork out £20million to sign Sacha Boey after Galatasaray reluctantly accepted they will have to sell the defender this summer.

Mikel Arteta is keen to strengthen his defence and Boey is a specialist right-back, that’s adept in and out of possession.

Ben White has impressed at right-back this season but Arteta still considers his best position to be in the centre.

Arteta has privately conceded that his side’s lack of depth cost the Gunners during the title run-in.

Arsenal have won just two of their last eight Premier League matches, which coincided with Manchester City’s best run of form in the campaign.

Boey is keen on a move to England and his representatives were in the UK this week to discuss the Frenchman’s move to the Premier League.

According to the Daily Mail, the Turkish giants want £20m to pary with Boey.

Arsenal’s interest could depend on how successful they are elsewhere in the window.

Declan Rice is a priority target but West Ham want £100m for the England ace.

That’s more than Arsenal are willing to pay but if they do decide to stretch that far, Arteta may be forced to shelve other moves.
