Mustafi has been linked with a shock transfer to Liverpool with Jurgen Klopp trying to bring in a defender as cover for the rest of the season.
Jordan Henderson has become a makeshift defender with the Liverpool boss relying on youngsters Nat Phillips and Rhys Williams.
Naturally, the Reds are considering their options with just a few days remaining of the market and it appears Mustafi is a genuine target for the club.
They're keeping tabs on his contract situation ahead of a potential free transfer.
The World Cup winner could terminate his contract early - just like Mesut Ozil - this month having not started a Premier League game this season.
The idea of Mustafi plying his trade at the home of the English champions sent Twitter wild.

Mustafi is gonna have Valencia, Arsenal, Liverpool, and a World Cup winners medal on his CV by the time he retires. He truly finessed the system

Knowing Arsenal's luck they'll finally get rid of Mustafi to Liverpool but he'll transform into Beckenbauer and be immense!

Gutted if Liverpool get Mustafi. Such a top defender. Never makes mistakes. Always takes the blame from his teammates. A proper leader. You're getting a world class defender @LFC :broken_heart:

Without their first-choice defenders, Liverpool beat Tottenham 3-1 to close the gap on league leaders Manchester City to four points.
Klopp's team resume their league campaign away at West Ham on Sunday.
