Deal ON!!! Arsenal to swoop for young Lyon sensation

English Premier League outfit Arsenal are set to swoop in for French Ligue 1 outfit Lyon youngster Yad Lochereau, if reports according to o Foot Mercarto is to be believed.

The North London outfit are keen on more additions ahead of the coming summer transfer window but it is unclear if Yad Lochereau is the kind of player they will be moving for as he is still a young lad and might not be able to meet with the competition in the team.

Yad Lochereau is reported to be training with Lyon’s U17 team but that has not stopped him from interesting a number of big sides who are all coming for his signature because of the prospect that has been seen.

It is claimed that Arsenal scout who went to watch Yad Lochereau has convinced the club to do all it takes to land the star forward before he gets into the hands of other suitors.

However, it is suggested that the Gunners team will focus more attention on bolstering the first team as there is a need to compete for titles in the coming season.

Manager Unai Emery has therefore been handed £40 million, according to reports for more additions to the team.
