The 18-year-old has shown himself to be a huge prospect with his performances in Ligue 1 this season, and could now be on his way to the Emirates Stadium.

According to Goal, Saliba has become one of Arsenal’s top priorities for the summer in a potential £25million move.
This follows Le 10 Sport also linking the teenager with Manchester United earlier this season, so it could be a battle between these two top four rivals ahead of next season.
Saliba certainly seems ready for a big move and could strengthen both of these teams due to their defensive problems in 2018/19.
Arsenal and United both conceded just over 50 goals in the Premier League – significantly more than the sides who eventually pipped them to top four spots, and even more than the likes of Wolves, Everton and Leicester City just below them.
