Werder Bremen coach Thomas Schaaf has confirmed that Brazilian defender Naldo will be allowed to leave the club this summer.
The 26-year-old centre-half has been with the Bundesliga club for four seasons and has been a first-team regular for the whole of that period, but Naldo is now close to moving on.
Arsenal have been linked with a move for the South American central defender.
Schaaf commented: "Naldo is a great athlete and could do well at the right club, unfortunately he doesn't fit the direction we're planning to move in any longer.
"We expect to sell him for somewhere in the region of ten million euros."
