Arsenal have reportedly joined Premier League rivals Chelsea in showing an interest in Brentford forward Said Benrahma.
The Algeria international has a combined 17 goals and assists in the Championship this season, leading to talk that he could be on his way to the English top flight.
Chelsea are believed to be leading the way for Benrahma's signature, having supposedly already opened initial discussions with his representatives.
However, reports in Italy suggest that Arsenal are also now in the mix to sign the 24-year-old, who is valued in the region of £36m by Brentford.
Benrahma, also previously linked with West Ham United and Aston Villa, is under contract with the Bees until 2022.
