Arsenal to scout Mohamed Diame at FA Cup match tonight?

Arsenal will reportedly send scouts to watch West Ham United midfielder Mohamed Diame play against Manchester United in the FA Cup tonight.

The Hammers travel to Old Trafford for a third-round replay and it is believed that members from the Gunners staff will be keeping a close eye on Diame.

It is understood that the Gunners will decide after the game if they are prepared to make a formal offer for the midfielder, who has a £3.5m release clause, according to Goal.com.

Meanwhile, Hammers boss Sam Allardyce recently claimed that Diame will not be signing for Arsenal this month.
