Report: Arsenal target De Sciglio

Arsenal have been linked with a move for AC Milan right-back Mattia de Sciglio as Bacary Sagna continues to stall on a new contract at the Emirates Stadium.

The 21-year-old has made an impression since breaking into the Rossoneri first team in 2011, and won his first cap for Italy in March's 2-2 draw with Brazil.

According to talkSPORT, Arsene Wenger fears that Sagna may leave the club on a free when his deal expires in the summer, and is monitoring De Sciglio as a potential replacement.

The defender still has three years left on his contract at the San Siro, and reports suggest that Diavolo would demand in excess of £10m for his release.
