Arsenal encouraged in bid for PSG starlet Adil Aouchiche

Arsenal have been encouraged in their interest in Paris Saint-Germain starlet Adil Aouchiche.

RMC says Aouchiche will look to leave the club when his contract expires this summer. The midfielder is said to have told PSG Sporting Director Leonardo that he will depart later this month amid concerns of senior playing time.

French sides St Etienne, Lille and Bordeaux were all named as potential landing spots as the 17-year-old Aouchiche looks to find more regular senior playing time after making just three appearances for PSG this season.

Arsenal's interest has been long reported, too. The attacking midfielder scored nine goals in five games at the Under-17s European Championships last summer and is highly regarded within French football.
