Calum Chambers 'targeted as Bacary Sagna replacement'

Chambers 'targeted as Sagna replacement'

Arsenal are reportedly looking to move for Southampton right-back Calum Chambers as a possible replacement for Bacary Sagna, should the Frenchman leave on a free transfer in the summer.

Chambers, 19, has impressed at the South-Coast club this season, including in a recent 2-2 draw against Arsenal, and this has led Gunners manager Arsene Wenger to weigh up a bid, The Mirror claims.

The Saints are said to have put a £10m price-tag on the English youngster, but that has not put off Wenger from swooping on Southampton again for another of the club's young talent, having previously signed Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Theo Walcott.

Southampton's other young full-back Luke Shaw has also been heavily linked with a move away from the club, with both Manchester United and Chelsea believed to be competing for his signature.
