Bayer Leverkusen will resist January offers for Arsenal target Kevin Volland, according to Sky Germany.

The Bundesliga club are hoping to plan with their vice-captain for the long-term and do not wish to sell the forward.

He has 18 months left on his contract and Gunners scouts have been to watch him a number of times recently ahead of a possible January move.

The 27-year-old is predominantly a centre-forward but can also play off the right-hand side, and is more desirable because he is left footed.
