Houssem Aouar reportedly agrees to join Arsenal, but the Gunners are yet to settle on a transfer fee with Lyon for the midfielder.

Lyon midfielder Houssem Aouar has reportedly agreed to join Arsenal during this summer's transfer window.

The 22-year-old has been strongly linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium over the last few weeks, with the Gunners seemingly identifying him as their leading target in the middle of the park.

Juventus, Barcelona and Manchester City have also been credited with an interest, although it is understood that there has not been a concrete offer from any of those three clubs.

According to Telefoot, Aouar has given up hope of joining Juve or Barca this summer and will move to Arsenal providing that the London giants can agree a fee with Lyon.

The Gunners are thought to have made an offer of between €35m (£32m) and €40m (£36.5m) for the Frenchman, but Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano has claimed that the Ligue 1 club want €60m (£55m)

Aouar was in impressive form for Les Gones during the 2019-20 campaign, contributing nine goals and 10 assists in 41 appearances in all competitions.
