Arsenal are reportedly considering Modeste M'Bami of Paris St Germain as the long term replacement for Mathieu Flamini who left to join AC Milan this summer.

M'Bami has been a very important player for PSG this year, but is expected to be allowed to leave the club.

Arsenal are ready to offer the French side £5.5 million for the midfielder, who has already attracted the attentions of David Moyes and Everton in recent months.

Arsene Wenger is known to be desperate to find a suitable replacement for Mathieu Flamini, and M'Bami certainly matches that requirement.
