Arsenal reportedly interested in landing £20m-rated French full-back

Arsenal manager Unai Emery has claimed that he is content with his squad ahead of the huge kick-off, there could be another arrival or two if a huge opportunity presents itself.

Andre Gomes, who Barcelona are planning to offload in the next week, has been strongly linked with a switch to the Emirates Stadium, while talk of a swoop for Steve N’Zonzi doesn’t go away.

According to reports coming into view from L’Equipe in France (via Sport Witness), Arsenal and league rival Manchester United are believed to be keen on a move for Monaco right-back Djibril Sidibe.

Said to be close to signing for La Liga club Atletico Madrid ahead of the World Cup, the 25-year-old star remains with the Ligue 1 side at present ahead of the transfer deadline.

Strongly tipped to sign for Manchester United before Diogo Dalot’s move to the Red Devils, the French publication state the north London giants have ‘started to be attentive’ to landing the French World Cup winner.

Djibril, who has four years left to run on his current contract at the Stade Louis II, would cost a considerable fee if Emery does really want to bring him to London.
