Arsenal are reportedly preparing to battle Chelsea for the signature of Brentford's Said Benrahma.
The 25-year-old was in impressive form for his Championship club during the 2019-20 campaign, scoring 17 times and contributing 10 assists in 46 appearances in all competitions.
The Algeria international is expected to be on the move during this summer's transfer window, and Chelsea, alongside a number of Premier League clubs, have been credited with an interest.
However, according to 90min, Arsenal are also firmly in the hunt for a player who has netted 28 goals and provided 27 assists in 91 outings for Brentford since arriving from Nice in 2018.
The report claims that the Gunners are prepared to meet the £25m asking price for the attacker as Mikel Arteta looks to boost his options in the final third for the 2020-21 campaign.
Benrahma largely operates as a left winger but also featured on the right for the Bees last term.
