Arsenal make contract offer to French defender

Arsenal have reportedly made a contract offer to Paris Saint-Germain defender Lurzawa.

The left-back was linked with a mid-season move to the Emirates Stadium but a deal failed to materialise as Les Parisiens were reluctant to listen to any offers.

As a result, the north London side opted to sign Cedric Soares on a short-term loan from Southampton and they will have the option to offer him a permanent deal when his contract expires in the summer.

However, according to Sport, the Capital outfit are said to prioritise the signing of Kurzawa ahead of Soares and they have already made a contract proposal to the Frenchman.

Apart from Soares, the Gunners have two specialist left-backs in Kieran Tierney and Sead Kolasinac but both of them have struggled with injuries in the current season.

One of them has been tipped to head through the exit door and that could pave the way for Kurzawa to make the move when his Les Parisiens contract expires this summer.
