Arsenal
target Nabil Fekir is expected to leave his side Lyon in the summer as the
reports are claiming strong interest from the Gunners.
Arsenal
have been targeting him since the January window and are likely to seal a 20
million pound deal for the 21-year-old star in the summer.
Manchester City are also keeping tabs on the player but it is likely that the Gunners will
win the race as Fekir’s father told Le
Parisien few month ago that his next destination will only be Arsenal.
Fekir
has been a vital player for Lyon and he earned his first cap for France
yesterday in a friendly game against Brazil.
Fekir has scored 11 goals and assisted seven in 26 Ligue One appearances so far this season.
Meanwhile,
Tuttosport also reported an interest
from Itlaian side Inter Milan.
On
the other hand, Manchester United are planning for a shock move for Arsenal
attacker Theo Walcott, as per the reports.
The
26-year-old has not been a regular player for Arsenal since his return from
injury despite of his impressive displays.
The
Englishman’s current contract will expire next season and reports from Metro claimed
that United are ready to fight Liverpool to secure his deal.
