Arsenal are eyeing Southampton midfielder Romeo Lavia.

The 19-year-old has impressed since joining the Saints from Manchester City last summer.

But the Gunners face competition for his signature from two Premier League rivals, according to Fabrizio Romano.

Arsenal added to their midfield in January by signing Jorginho, but could look to strengthen further in the summer.

Romano claims Chelsea also remain interested in the midfielder.

The Blues made a staggering £50million offer - £40m up front plus £10m in add ons – for Lavia just weeks after he joined the Saints last summer.

Lavia signed for Southampton in a £14m deal from Manchester City. His former club negotiated a £40m buy-back clause in the transfer, which will become active in 2024.
