Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil has reportedly remained as a transfer target for Inter Milan.
The Italian giants were one of a number of sides keen on Ozil when his contract was due to expire at the Emirates Stadium, but speculation ended in February once the playmaker opted to commit his future to the Gunners.
However, the German is not regarded as first choice by manager Unai Emery, and it appears increasingly likely that the Spaniard and Arsenal would be prepared to allow their highest-earning player to leave the club.
According to the Daily Mail, Ozil's current situation has alerted Inter, who may be prepared to make an approach for the 30-year-old during the January window.
Ozil still has a lucrative contract until 2021 and may need tempting into a departure away from London, but much could depend on Emery's plans for the player in the coming weeks.
Just four goals and two assists have come from 14 outings in all competitions this season.
