Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is facing stiff competition for Le Havre defender Harold Moukoudi.

Wenger is eager to ferry the youngster to London in January.

However, The Sun says they face competition from Nice, Bordeaux and Red Bull Leipzig for Moukoudi.

The Gunners are keen on the 19-year-old defender, regarded as one of the biggest prospects in the French youth football.

Moukoudi is tailor-made for the Premier League – a tall, powerful centre-back comfortable on the ball.

Le Havre are resigned to losing their prize asset, so a deal could be wrapped up in January with him loaned back for the second half of the season.
