Basel ace Mohamed Elyounoussi tracked by Arsenal, Leicester

Basel ace Mohamed Elyounoussi is being tracked by Arsenal.

ESPN says the 23-year-old forward starred against Manchester City on Wednesday evening, putting in a man-of-the-match display as the Swiss side won 2-1.

Elyounoussi equalised for Raphael Wicky's men in the 17th minute after Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring, before he turned provider in the second half as Michael Lang netted the winner.

Gunners scouts were in attendance at the Etihad as the Moroccan-born Norwegian international dazzled.

The report goes on to claim that scouts from Leicester and Southampton also watched him in action as the trio eye up a potential summer swoop.
