Arsenal are readying a bid for Leicester City defender Timothy Castagne.

Het Belang van Limburg says the Gunners weighing a move for the Belgium international.

Gunners manager Mikel Arteta is a fan of Castagne's versatility. The defender can play at fullback, in midfield and centre-half.

Arsenal chief Edu had scouts run checks on Castagne late in the season.

He will reportedly command a fee of £13-£17million.
