Arsenal leading Manchester United in race for Hakim Ziyech?

Arsenal are reportedly in pole position to sign Ajax winger Hakim Ziyech, who has also been touted as a possible target for Manchester United.

The 26-year-old has previously talked up a move to the Emirates Stadium, but he is also believed to be open to joining Premier League rivals Man United.

According to talkSPORT, though, it is Arsenal who are leading the way for the Morocco international's signature.

Ziyech was named Ajax's Player of the Year for 2018-18 thanks to his 21 goals and 24 assists in 49 games.

The Dutch champions are believed to be willing to offload Ziyech for £25m - substantially lower than the £80m Crystal Palace are after for fellow Gunners target Wilfried Zaha.
