Chelsea, Arsenal linked as Arda Turan set to leave Barcelona

Arda Turan is cleaning out his locker at Barcelona.

The Turkey international accepts he needs to move on this summer, despite the arrival of new coach Ernesto Valverde.

El Mundo Deportivo says Turan has already informed teammates he’s leaving, “Either I go of my own accord,or they’ll kick me out”, he’s confessed.

Now 30, Turan turned down a move to China in January and is unlikely to explore that option this summer.

A move to England has been mooted, where Turan has been a regular visitor to London. Both Arsenal and Chelsea have been linked with the midfielder this season.
