Arsenal are eyeing Lyon midfielder Tanguy Ndombele.
Le Porgres says Arsenal are considering a move for Ndombele.
The change in approach comes after talks with Lucas Torreira were put on hold by Sampdoria until after the World Cup.
Arsenal's chief negotiators are now considering a move for Ndombele - a top transfer target for bitter rivals Tottenham.
The 21-year-old spent last season on loan at the Groupama Stadium but he will complete a permanent switch to the club this summer for roughly £7m.
