Arsenal are among the sides interested in signing 17-year-old centre-back Ismael Doukoure from Ligue 2 outfit Valenciennes, according to a report.

Teenage Valenciennes centre-back Ismael Doukoure has emerged as a rumoured summer transfer target for Arsenal.

The 17-year-old made his senior debut for the French club in October and has gone on to feature a further 14 times in Ligue 2.

Doukoure is now a regular for Valenciennes and, according to Foot Mercato, he is attracting interest from teams across the continent.

One of the sides said to be keeping tabs on the young defender is Arsenal, but the Gunners may have to move fast as domestic rivals Leicester City are also readying a bid.

Former Lille ace Doukoure will also supposedly be offered the chance to stay in France with Ligue 1 side Strasbourg should he wish.
