Club Call reported that the Egyptian star Hossam Ghaly is linked with a January move to the English Premiership giants Arsenal FC.

The website reported that the Gunners have been watching the progress of Ghaly for over a year and will probably make a bid in January to land the talented midfielder.

This will be a possibility if Arsene Wenger feels he can succeed in what Feyenoord's coach Erwin Koeman failed to do which is harnessing the player’s undoubted talent.

Arsenal have been in constant search for a defensive midfielder since Patrick Vieira's department to Juventus. The most recent player linked with the outfit was Papa Diop of Fulham, but the talks were recently hyped down by the Senegal man.

Ghaly himself, is aware of the interest from Arsenal and has even expressed his desire to join his former team-mate at Feyenoord, Robin Van Persie, who transferred to the London-based club:


"I know that I can make it in Europe, that is a dream which I want to live. I have one big wish and that is to play for my dream team Arsenal some day," commented Ghaly.

"That club shows the most beautiful football in the world; technical, fast, one touch. I find it magnificent watching them play," he added.

"Robin van Persie is lucky playing for such a huge team. That isn’t jealousy, Robin deserves the best. We get along together well, and above all he is one of the best players I have ever played with," concluded Ghaly, who is under contract at Feyenoord till 2007.
