PSG to battle Arsenal for Youssef Msakni signature

Arsenal will face competition from Paris Saint-Germain in the race to sign Youssef Msakni.

The Gunners are thought to be keeping tabs on the Tunisian but now PSG are lining up a summer bid for the 21-year-old attacking midfielder, according to talkSPORT.

Speaking on speculation of a move to the Emirates, Msakni said: "Arsenal? That would be a fantastic move for me. However, I am not aware of their interest.

"I am ready to make the next step. Going abroad will improve me and I want to fulfil my potential."

Ligue 1 champions Lille are also thought to be interested in Msakni, who currently plays for Esperance Tunis.
