Arsenal planning move for French star after Wenger gets tip-off from French connections
ARSENAL are reportedly tracking Lille striker Sehrou Guirassy.
Sehrou Guirassy has apparently caught the eye of Arsene Wenger
The 20-year-old joined Lille last summer after breaking through as an 18-year-old at Laval.
He has spent the second half of this season on loan with Ligue 2 side Auxerre.
And he has impressed, scoring eight goals in 16 appearances for the French club.
According to ESPN, the 20-year-old’s performances have caught the eye of Arsenal.
Unbelievable facts about Arsenal
The report claims Gunners boss Arsene Wenger was alerted to the youngster by his French connections.
And the Frenchman sent chief scout Steve Rowley out to France last Friday to watch Guirassy in action against Le Havre.
