Arsenal face a tough fight to sign Leicester City's Ghana international utility player Jeffrey Schlupp, reports the Daily Express.
The 22-year-old can play either at left-back or further forward on the wing, and has drawn this interest after a great season for the Foxes.
He played 35 times for Nigel Pearsonââ¬â¢s side, scoring four goals and creating two more for his teammates.
The Ghana international even impressed enough to win both the clubââ¬â¢s young player and the playersââ¬â¢ player awards.
The Villans had Kieran Richardson at left-back for much of the last campaign, but manager Tim Sherwood wonââ¬â¢t want to become embroiled in another relegation battle and may want an improvement on the 30-year-old.
Meanwhile the Gunners already have Kieran Gibbs and Nacho Monreal to play in the position, but neither has really made the role their own at the Emirates.
This isnââ¬â¢t the first time that the youngster has caught the eye of a Champions League club, with the defender having had a month long trial with Manchester United before going to the King Power stadium back in 2013.
It would seem have been a good decision to not sign for the Red Devils, with the regular first team football going well for him with Leicester.
