Arsenal chief Raul Sanllehi is coy about their interest in RB Leipzig defender Dayot Upamecano.

The Mirror says Sanllehi couldn't help a wry smile and nod when questioned over the prospect of signing Upamecano.

The RB Leipzig defender is high on Arsenal's wanted list as club bosses keep close tabs on the Frenchman and look to back Mikel Arteta in the transfer market.

Two fans took matters into their own hands, approaching transfer guru Raul Sanllehi in the stands at the Emirates with a photo of the player on their phone.

The supporter suggests he's a “very good player" to the Spaniard, earning a nod from Sanllehi as he smiles and replies “yeah, I know" before refraining from adding any further details.
