Milo wants Arsenal move

Egyptian left-back Milo has revealed that he would love to move to Arsenal this summer.

The Gunners have reportedly joined the likes of Lyon, Benfica and Sporting Lisbon in the race to sign the 21-year-old from current club Haras Al Hodood.

"Arsenal officials have been following me since my participation in the Toulon tournament in 2009. And the English team got more interested in me after Toulon 2012 and I'm now waiting for their official letter," Milo told FilGoal.

"I will meet with the Haras Al Hodood officials before I leave with the Olympic squad on Thursday [to France for two warm-up matches] to understand their stance from this offer.

"I believe the Arsenal scouts will watch me closely at the London Olympics. My participation at London 2012 is what will determine my next step, and I hope to come to a European club."

Arsenal are keen to strengthen the defence this summer after shaky spells at the back last year.
