**Arsenal have been in discussions with RB Leipzig's executive Marcel Schäfer with Andrea Berta in London a few days ago.**
**It has been reported today by journalist Florian Plettenburg of Sky Sports in Germany that negotiations have already began and that a payment structure is under discussion.**
**Apparently it is not clear if Arsenal are able to afford the full package of meeting the 80m euro release clause.**
