Arsenal face Juventus competition for Kylian Mbappe

Arsenal will reportedly face stiff competition from Juventus for the services of Kylian Mbappe this summer.

The teenage forward has captured the attention of a host of elite European clubs following his impressive showing for AS Monaco this season.

Mbappe, 18, has already notched seven goals and five assists this campaign, and many believe he has the potential to match former Gunners great Thierry Henry.

According to The Bleacher Report, the Gunners will compete with Juventus for the young winger, who was on the scoresheet during his side's 5-3 defeat to Manchester City in the Champions League last 16, first-leg.

It is added that Mbappe will not come in the cheap with Monaco set to demand an initial £36m - the sum received for Anthony Martial's transfer to Manchester United in 2015.

Mbappe made his first senior appearance for Monaco last season where he surpassed Henry's record to become the youngster ever debutant for the club. He is fast closing on 50 appearances for the Principality outfit in all competitions.
