Omar El Kaddouri appeals to Arsenal

Omar El Kaddouri is the latest name linked with a move to Arsenal. The Brescia midfielder is valued by his club at around 5m Euros, and reports from Italy suggest Arsene Wenger admires the Belgian youngster.

Since joining Brescia from Anderlecht back in 2008, El Kaddouri has progressed very well and numerous clubs have had their scouting networks prepare a personal account on the youngster.

The player is happy to hear of the interest from Arsenal.

"I am flattered by the interest shown by those clubs but it is not official to me yet so I can't say anything," said El Kaddouri.

"I have heard through newspapers, so I am relaxed. I just want to continue to play good for Brescia and once January comes we will all see what will happen.

"Being linked with Arsenal? They play the good football I like and Mr Wenger gives a chance to any young players and likes technical players like me.

"Brescia has been good to me and I love this place but once interest is shown by some teams you have to think about it."
