Arsenal monitoring Clement Grenier

The Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has reverted to his old style as he is once again looking out in his homeland for young blood to recruit for his burgeoning team.

Wenger is still having interest on Olympique Lyon’s Clement Grenier according to media reports in France.Grenier has been the shortlist at Arsenal for quite a while now.


Wenger has huge admiration for Grenier, even going to lengths of drawing parallels between him and Samir Nasri. Even the 22-year-old has himself admitted of his wish to move to the Emirates saying, he would be delighted to accept the move.

On the other hand, Grenier's father Michel Grenier and Lyon President Jean-Michel Aulas have played spoilsport to Wenger’s plans by rejecting a move for the player, who came into the spotlight after his extraordinary performances following Yoann Gourcuff’s injury last year.

It now remains to see how serious Arsene Wenger is in the pursue of the French starlet.
