Feyenoord defender De Vrij flattered by Arsenal interest

Feyenoord defender Stefan De Vrij is flattered by interest from Arsenal.

The youngster has been watched by Gunners chief scout Steve Rowley in recent weeks.

De Vrij is inside the final 18 months of his current deal and says he's willing to stay with Feyenoord before making the jump to England.

But he did add: "That my name has been associated with Arsenal, excited me. I'm not going to lie. I don't believe it was just rumours. Where there's smoke, there's fire."
