Several Arsenal fans have expressed their interest in seeing the club sign Feyenoord midfielder Orkun Kokcu this summer.
The Turkish youth international has reportedly attracted the interest of the Gunners, with Mikel Arteta hoping to sign a more creative midfielder as he looks to bolster his options.
The 19-year-old has impressed in his breakout year for the Eredivisie club this season, and is said to be wanted by a number of other teams as well as Arsenal, with Everton and Sevilla both holding interest.
With Mesut Ozil now 31-years old, the Gunners will soon need to find his long-term successor, and Kokcu could be a long-term investment that would help them ease that transition.
Taking to social media to express their opinions on the situation, a number of Arsenal fans have called on the club to make a move for the Feyenoord star, who is said to cost around £25million.

Ceballos is a deep midfielder, we already have loads of these players. Kokcu is at least a #8 and we don’t have many of those players.

Kokcu is class. I'm proper invested now. Can receive off both feet, shoot and pass off both feet. Vision, final ball. Power when running. Retains well, links well, can play one touch
