Arsenal's scouts in France have been monitoring youngster Geoffrey Kondogbia, currently playing in Ligue 2 for Lens. Gilles Grimandi, the Gunners chief scout, has sent back glowing reports to London.
The French Under-19 international has been on form this year, with the 18 year old currently playing regular first team football for Lens.
The defensive midfielder has been labelled a player of great potential by many respected pundits in France, and Lyon and Lille have both been monitoring his progress closely.
However, it appears that Arsenal could beat all the French sides to his coveted signature; the Gunners are reportedly preparing a 3.25m GBP move next summer.
