Arsenal boss Emery eyeing Olympique Marseille midfielder Thauvin

Arsenal boss Unai Emery is eyeing Olympique Marseille midfielder Florian Thauvin.

Emery is plotting a swoop for Thauvin.

Thauvin has rebuilt his reputation at Marseille after a disastrous six-month spell at Newcastle United in the 2015/16 season.

The 25-year-old enjoyed his best campaign to date last term, chipping in with 26 goals and 18 assists in all competitions.

StadioSport reports Emery is a big fan of Thauvin and wants to bring him back to the Premier League.

The French outfit would only consider selling Thauvin for a fee in the region of £44.3m (€50m) though.
