Arsenal target Soares move

Arsenal lining up move for Sporting full-back

30 October 2014 - 17:03

Arsenal are reportedly eyeing a January move for Sporting Lisbon defender Cedric Soares, according to The Star.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Arsenal suffer big injury blow ahead of Fulham game
  • The Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is well aware of the club's lack of strength in the defensive department, having been forced to rely on youngster Hector Bellerin at right-back during times where Calum Chambers has played in the central defensive role.

    A report from The Star claims that Frenchman had sent scouts to watch Soares in action over the past few weeks.

    In addition to this, the Gunners could opt to sign the 23-year-old in the New Year, given his release clause is just £7m.
