Arsenal favourites to sign LYON FRONTMAN

Arsenal look front-runners in the chase to sign Lyon forward Clinton N'Jie, according to a French source.

The 21-year-old has emerged as a top target for a host of Premier League clubs this summer, following an excellent breakthrough season with the Ligue 1 outfit.

According to French publication L'Equipe, the Gunners are leading the race to sign the Cameroon international, who scored eight goals in 33 league appearances for his club last term

However, the North London giants still have a long way to go with the negotiations, with club president Jean Michel Aulas recently suggesting that the French side are not desperate to add to their bank balance.
