Arsenal target William Saliba has stated his desire to move to the club.

The Saint-Etienne centre-back is a prime target for Unai Emery's men this summer.

He is rated at £26.7 million, while Saint-Etienne want him back on loan for another season as part of any deal.

The French side will not sell the under-21 international under any other terms.

However, the Daily Star reports that Saliba told the Ligue 1 club he wants to join Arsenal now.

He has reportedly agreed a five year contract with the Gunners.
