It is being reported that Arsenal are interested in signing Lech Poznan attacking midfielder Dawid Kownacki.
The 17-year-old is one of the highest rated talents in his country – and broke into the Lech first-team last year after impressing at youth level.
Arsenal can reportedly have him for as little as €160k as he has not yet signed a professional deal – quite an outstanding price for a player that Lech want to slap a €5 million asking price on if he signs a new deal at the club.
