Brentford winger Benrahma 'flattered' by Arsenal, Chelsea links

Brentford attacker Said Benrahma has admitted he is flattered by links to top clubs in the country.

The Championship star has seen his stock rise this season, and he is linked with moves to Chelsea or Arsenal in the transfer window.

But he wants to ensure he can get Brentford to the top flight first.

They missed a chance at automatic promotion on the final day, but can go through via the playoffs.

The 24-year-old recently told reporters: "I was really flattered [to see myself linked with those clubs], but, at the same time, I am so focused about getting out of the Championship with Brentford that I do not pay too much attention.

"But it gives me confidence."
