Report: Arsenal interested in Juventus midfielder Mario Lemina

Arsenal have expressed an interest in signing Juventus midfielder Mario Lemina, according to reports.

The 22-year-old, who can play in the centre of the park or at right-back, was snapped up by the Old Lady in April after impressing on loan at the Juventus Arena from Marseille.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Serie A giants are keen to keep the Gabon international, but would consider a bid in the region of £18m, though Arsenal are said to have made an offer of £14m.

Lemina is also reportedly wanted by Bundesliga side Schalke 04.
