Kevin Campbell told the Highbury Squad Podcast that Yves Bissouma ‘wants to come to Arsenal’.
Football London have reported that Arsenal are keen on bringing the Brighton midfielder to the club this summer.
On the last day of the Premier League season, Arsenal beat Brighton, with Nicolas Pepe seen chatting to his former Lille teammate after the game.
And given that Arsenal are interested in his services, Campbell shared that the feeling is mutual in the 24-year-old wanting to don their colours next season.
“I am hearing that he wants to come to Arsenal,” said Campbell. “That’s what I am hearing.
“So, Arsenal have got to make some moves and get him. I don’t know if you saw it at the end of the game. Him and Pepe were there talking.
“And I think Pepe was just talking him through the Emirates. You go through that door at the top. You got down the side there and there’s a bar. Your family will be up in that box. My box is beside it.
“You know, something like that.”
All eyes will be on the Arsenal owners and whether they put their money where their mouth is after an abject campaign.
No European football after 25 years isn’t a surprise to anybody because Arsenal have fallen like a stone under the stewardship of the under-fire Kroenke’s.
If Mikel Arteta isn’t backed by the American’s this summer then the already-frustrated Arsenal fanbase will become angrier.
And that bodes well for not a single soul associated with Arsenal.
