Crystal Palace midfielder James McArthur emerges as a reported transfer target for Arsenal following the injury to Francis Coquelin.

Arsenal are reportedly considering a January move for Crystal Palace midfielder James McArthur.

The 28-year-old joined Palace from Wigan Athletic in the summer of 2014 and has been an ever-present in Alan Pardew's first XI this season.

The Scotland international has also weighed in with two goals and two assists, and according to HITC Sport, the midfielder's form has attracted the attention of Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.

The Gunners are expected to be in the market for a new defensive midfielder in January due to Francis Coquelin's recent injury.

McArthur is believed to fit the bill for the London club due to his experience in the Premier League.
