12 March 2012 - 15:20

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger today admitted that he is considering a move for Montpellier winger Younes Belhanda. The highly rated 22-year-old has been a star for the Ligue 1 title hopefuls this year, and is valued at around 15 million GBP.

  • Chelsea handed big injury boost for Bayern clash
  • Fernandes unhappy with Man Utd role under Amorim

  • The Moroccan international already has 12 caps to his name, and the Gunners' chief scout Steve Rowley has been watching the player in action this month.



    In Ligue 1 this year, Belhanda has scored 7 goals in 20 games, whilst also contributing a further three assists to ensure that Montpellier remain in touch with big spending Paris St Germain at the top of the French top tier.



    News that Arsenal are preparing a big money move for Belhanda are sure to be exciting for the 5 foot 9 midfielder.



    "I know Younes well and like him a lot," Wenger said. "But I don't want to cause problems. Only Montpellier can decide where he goes."
