Arsenal interested in signing 23yo Frenchman

Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing French defender Sacha Boey from Turkish champions Galatasaray.

The Gunners were heavily touted to make a move for Boey last summer, but they opted to land Jurrien Timber instead.

Timber's serious injury led to suggestions that they could pursue a deal for Boey, but no proposal was made in the end.

The right-back has continued to impress for the Turkish giants and AS today claim that the Gunners remain keen on him.

The same outlet mention that it would take a fee of around €25m to persuade Galatasaray to part ways with the 23-year-old.

Aside from the Gunners, Paris Saint-Germain are also admirers of the defender and could make a move in the current window.

It is unclear whether Arsenal will make an approach too, considering they have other priorities for the ongoing transfer window.

A new central midfielder and a striker are the requirements of manager Mikel Arteta despite funds being limited at the moment.
