Premier League leaders Arsenal are reportedly targeting Crystal Palace youngster Michael Olise ahead of a proposed summer move.

In a report by Football Transfers, it is said that Mikel Arteta is a ‘big fan of the player’.

The French U21 international has enjoyed a stellar second season for the Eagles in the Premier League.

Having made 29 league appearances, Olise has provided an impressive eight assists as well as scoring two goals.

One of the goals came as a last minute equaliser against Manchester United, a strike which earned him the Premier League goal of the month accolade.

His impressive displays this term have clearly not gone unnoticed either.

Arteta is now said to have identified the 21-year-old as the perfect candidate to deputise for Bukayo Saka on the right wing.

Olise’s flexibility of being able to play a central role also sees him fit the bill perfectly at the Emirates.

With three years left on his contract at Selhurst Park, it is likely he won’t come cheap.

Palace are reportedly looking for around £40 million for their star, with plenty of interest expected in the summer.

The asking price may be reduced if the Eagles were relegated to the Championship, but this scenario now looks unlikely after a good run of form under the re-appointed Roy Hodgson.

Arsenal may face some stiff competition for the youngster however, with the likes of Paris-Saint-Germain, Liverpool, Newcastle and Manchester United all keeping tabs on the Palace talent.
