Anderlecht midfielder Lucas Biglia expects to leave the club in the summer and insists that both Arsenal and Real Madrid are interested in signing him.
The Argentine has another three years left on his current deal with the newly-crowned Belgian champions but is thought to have been a long-term target for the Gunners.
Real Madrid are also thought to be keen in using the 26-year-old as a replacement for Lassana Diarra, who is expected to depart the Santiago Bernabeu, according to AS.
"It's true that Real Madrid and Arsenal are interested in me," Biglia told todomercadoweb.es.
"I can say that Real Madrid have contacted my agent Enzo Montepaono to ask about my situation but so far there have only been contacts and no formal offers have arrived. About Arsenal, I can tell you the same as before. Only Arsenal and Real Madrid have contacted us and now we are waiting.
"I have a contract with Anderlecht until 2015 but the club know what I want. My intention is to leave."
The Argentina international joined Anderlecht in 2006 and has since gone on to establish himself as key member of the squad.
