Arsenal monitor Manchester United move for 26yo Lyon forward | OneFootball

Arsenal and Manchester United are both reportedly keen on signing Lyon’s forward, Moussa Dembele.

It has been a little over a year since Arsenal were last linked with a move for Lyon’s Moussa Dembele with the club reportedly keen to do a £25m-deal last summer which, of course, came to nothing.

The report that Arsenal and Manchester United are interested in Demebele, who only has a year left on his current contract, comes via the French site, Media Foot. They claim United have been working towards a deal and that Arsenal are continuing to monitor the situation.
