Arsenal chase French keeper Didillon

Arsenal have joined the race to sign talented young French goalkeeper Thomas Didillon from FC Metz. The shot stopper is one of the brightest young keeping prospects in France.

According to reports, Didillon has been tracked by Arsenal for over six months and the Gunners have moved a step closer to securing a deal for the brilliant keeper.

Metz have reportedly agreed a fee of 7.5 million euros to sell Didillon at the end of the season and the player is set to discuss personal terms with the Emirates Stadium outfit shortly.

Didillon has spent the whole of his career with FC Metz and has appeared at every single youth level for France's national team, from under-16's all of the way to the under-21's. The 6 foot 4 goalkeeper has also been linked with Premier League rivals Tottenham Hotspur.
