Arsenal and West Ham battle to sign Senegal international

Arsenal are reportedly interested in Stoke City midfielder Badou Ndiaye.

The Potters signed the 27-year old Senegal international from Galatasaray last January for around £14million, although his signing was not enough to prevent the club from succumbing to relegation.

Now Galsen Foot claim the Gunners are interested in his services, along with West Ham who have reportedly made the first move.

Ndiaye, who is currently preparing for the World Cup in Russia next month, claims he “feels good” with Stoke, but it is believed he will try to remain in the Premier League if he can.

While West Ham seem to be the more logical move, Arsenal have long wanted a defensive midfielder and could look to Ndiaye as the man to fill that position.

Unai Emery has been appointed as the Arsenal boss and plans are evidently well underway as he aims to strengthen the side ahead of an important Premier League season.
