Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta is eyeing a raid on the LaLiga to boost his midfield.
Arteta has concerns about his midfield options and is willing to splash out big in January.
Real Madrid ace Aurelio Tchouameni and Real Sociedad's Martin Zubimendi are both on the agenda, says Foot Mercato.
Zubimendi's deal with La Real carries a 60m buyout clause.
France international Tchouameni, meanwhile, won't be pushing for a midseason exit, though has struggled for minutes this term.
