Arsenal to poach Leicester City youngster Dennis Gyamfi?

Arsenal are reportedly eyeing up a move for teenage Leicester City defender Dennis Gyamfi.

The Gunners are supposedly prioritising swap deals and free agents for the summer transfer window, and Gyamfi's scholarship contract at the King Power Stadium is due to expire in June.

According to Football Insider, several sides are keeping a watchful eye over developments surrounding the 18-year-old, who has made nine appearances in the Under-18 Premier League this term.

The report states that Gyamfi is unlikely to make inroads at Leicester for as long as Ricardo Pereira occupies the right-back position, and Arsenal would have to pay a compensation fee to the Foxes for his services.

Mikel Arteta's side have already been linked with another youthful defender in the form of George Lewis, who is currently a free agent.
