Arsenal are 'vulnerable' in transfer window says pundit
Arsenal have reportedly contacted Bayern Munich about the prospect of signing Angelo Stiller in the summer transfer window. Stiller is yet to make his breakthrough into the Bayern first-team, but his performances at youth level have already attracted some interest from Europe's elite.

And it seems they have found one player of interest in the form of Stiller.
According to German newspaper Bild, Arsenal have already made contact with Bayern regarding a potential transfer this summer.
The 19-year-old has just one year left on his contract at Bayern and it is suggested the Bundesliga giants may look to cut a deal this summer.
Arsenal have already experienced first-hand what Stiller can offer having played against the defensive midfielder during Bayern's pre-season tour last summer.
However, the report does go on to state Stiller's preference would be to stay at Bayern and try to break into the first-team next season.
Arsenal have a number of options for the defensive midfield role with Matteo Guendouzi, Lucas Torreira and Granit Xhaka but Stiller would offer Arteta a cheaper alternative at signing another player to bolster his options.
At 19 years of age, Stiller would also be seen as one for the future, fitting into Arsenal's transfer strategy.
Feyenord teenager Orkun Kokcu is another young player being linked with a move to the Emirates having impressed in the Dutch Eredivisie this season.
And former Manchester United defender Jaap Stam, who worked with Kokcu at Feyenord during his short stint as manager, believes the Turkish forward would thrive in the Premier League.
