GUNNERS IN THE HUNT FOR GONALONS

EPL side Arsenal are preparing a £10 million bid for Lyon midfielder Max Gonalons.

Gunners gaffer Arsene Wenger has been sending scouts to watch the French international defensive midfielder.

Gonalons, 24, who has three years left on his deal, is once again set to be watched by Arsenal in Lyon’s trip to Nancy on Sunday.

Wenger is desperate to bag a holding midfielder this summer after losing Abou Diaby for the rest of the year with a knee ligament injury.

Gonalons, a Lyon player all his career, boasts a reputation for being extremely consistent.
