Arsenal lining up move for 18yo French winger
Arsenal are lining up an approach to sign French winger Jean-Matteo Bahoya from Angers this month, according to L'Equipe.
The Gunners are aiming to add more quality into the squad in the current transfer window and have been linked with several players.
A new striker and a central midfielder are among the top priorities, but the club are also exploring deals for upcoming talents.
Bahoya is one of those who has impressed in the French second tier. He has seven goal contributions from less than 800 minutes.
The 18-year-old is a left winger by trade, but he has the ability to operate from the attacking midfield role or as a lone striker.
AC Milan and Eintracht Frankfurt are also keeping tabs and there could be a bidding war to sign him before the window closes.
Bahoya is valued at around €2.5 million by Transfermarkt, but he could be priced much higher with Angers aware of the high-profile interest.
