But, even though Khedira has just a year left on his contract at Real Madrid, the Gunners are not willing to be held to ransom by his demands for £150,000-a-week before bonuses.
The salary would lift the 27-year-old - who has so far rejected a new deal at the European champions - above the likes of Sanchez and Mesut Ozil, both of whom are on around £130,000-a-week.
Elsewhere, Arsenal expect to sign TWO right-backs this week - France international Mathieu Debuchy of Newcastle and Atletico Madrid youngster Javier Manquillo.
The capture of Debuchy is dependent on the Magpies completing a £6m deal to sign Feyenoord World Cup star Daryl Janmaat to replace Debuchy.
Manquillo, 20, can play on either flank and in midfield.
The arrivals of the two players will mean a loan move for the Gunners' young right-back Carl Jenkinson, to gain more top flight playing experience.
Wenger remains keen on a £3m move for Colombia World Cup keeper David Ospina after relegated Cardiff demanded a massive £10m for David Marshall.

The domestic violence case between Amber Heard and Johnny Depp is getting messier by the minute, and now they're dragging other people in the midst of their conflict. Depp apparently accused his wife of cheating on him with Billy Bob Thornton back in 2015, but the actor has completely denied all allegations. 'Our Brand Is Crisis' star Billy Bob Thornton has branded the suggestion that he slept with Amber Heard during the production of their latest movie 'London Fields' as 'completely false' according to reports from TMZ . The story is that he 'never socialized with Amber off set, other than a cast dinner', and adds that he had no on-set contact with her either, other than in a professional capacity. Of course, in the movie, their character's are close; it follows the story of a manipulative young woman named Nicola Six (Heard) who strings along three men including a writer named Samson Young (Thornton) in a bid to bring about her own murder.
