PLUS: The Gunners appear to have moved a step closer to the Shokdran Mustafi deal, while a forward could leave the club on loan
Engels will not consider moving to Arsenal
Club Brugge defender Bjorn Engels has revealed that he will not consider a move to Arsenal yet.
The 21-year-old has been the subject of interest from the Gunners and Borussia Dortmund, but insists that he is not ready for a move to one of Europe's elite just yet.
He told Het Laatste Nieuws: "That [a move to Dortmund or Arsenal] is a bridge too far for me at the moment.
"A mid-table team [in a big league] would be the ideal next step for me and there have been some serious offers from such teams.
"I am staying calm, though. I only want to be informed about it when Club also agree to a transfer.
"I am 100 per cent focused on Club now and that will not change so long as I am here. Playing in the Champions League is a nice prospect as well."
