Nabil Fekir 'edging closer to Arsenal move' as Gunners target Lyon star to replace Alexis Sanchez

Lyon star Nabil Fekir is edging closer to a move to Arsenal with talks underway over a potential £60million switch.

That is according to the Daily Star, who say the Gunners have identified Fekir to replace Alexis Sanchez, who is expected to leave the Emirates next summer.

Both Sanchez and Mesut Ozil are out of contract at the end of the campaign and are yet to put pen to paper on fresh terms.

Atletico Madrid and Juventus have also scouted Fekir, whose contract in Lyon runs until 2020.
