Arsenal are considering a move for Porto midfielder Yacine Brahimi.

The Mirror says Brahimi is a free agent in the summer when his deal with the Portuguese giants runs out.

And the Gunners, Manchester United and Everton are understood to be among the clubs to have held initial talks with the 28 year-old's representatives.

Meanwhile, Brahimi's free agent status will increase his appeal to Arsenal and boss Unai Emery who could see his close-season transfer budget reduced if Arsenal miss out on a top-four finish.

Everton are keeping tabs on Paris-born Brahimi, who is capable of playing as an attacking midfielder and on both flanks, too.
