Arsene Wenger admits Clement Grenier interest

Arsene Wenger has admitted that Arsenal are tracking Lyon youngster Clement Grenier this summer.

The 22-year-old came through the youth setup at the French club and has now established himself as a key member of the first team.

Wenger has compared Grenier to a young Samir Nasri and, with Lyon chairman Jean Michel-Aulas recently admitting that he could sell a number of the club's players to help balance the books, a move is likely in the transfer window.

"We are following him," Wenger told Telefoot. "His intelligence of play pleases me. He has interesting qualities. He reminds me of Nasri."

Grenier has made 31 appearances in all competitions so far this season, scoring six goals.
