According to RMC Sport, Arsenal target Adil Aouchiche has decided to leave Paris Saint-Germain this summer, with his decision seemingly communicated to the club.
Just days ago, PSG lost one of their top young talents. Defender Tanguy Kouassi decided to snub a professional deal at the Parc des Princes in favour of joining Bayern Munich.
It now seems that Kouassi won’t be alone in leaving. Fellow youngster Aouchiche is also out of contract this summer, and will also be moving on.
It’s claimed that Aouchiche has decided to leave, causing major disappointing for sporting director Leonardo having learned of his decision.
Aouchiche, 17, has come up through the PSG ranks. However, after just three first-team appearances this term – in which he scored one goal – he has decided to pursue opportunities elsewhere.
A talented playmaker who can play as a central midfielder or as a number 10, Aouchiche looks set for a bright future – and Arsenal could benefit from his exit.
ESPN claim that Mikel Arteta is keen to raid his former club to bring Aouchiche to Arsenal. With his contract ending later this month, Arsenal could now pounce for a bargain.
Arsenal already have one ex-PSG talent in Matteo Guendouzi, and they will now have real hope of bringing in Aouchiche too – especially as this report states that his destination isn’t yet known despite links to Lille and Saint-Etienne.
