Team-mates tell midfielder to consider PL move – Arsenal could pounce

Porto midfielder Yacine Brahimi is being encouraged to leave the Portuguese side, with Arsenal discussed as a possible destination.

A Bola, as cited on Sky Sports, claims that the player’s Algerian team-mates and Leicester City duo Riyad Mahrez and Islam Slimani have spoken to the player about the prospect of the Premier League.

The report claims that a move to Leicester to join both Mahrez and Slimani is unlikely, but they suggest a deal with Arsenal could emerge as a serious possibility for the Algerian international.

The player is out of contract in Porto next summer and they could be forced into selling now rather than lose him for nothing.

Brahimi has often been linked with moves to the Premier League in the past and is coming off the back of a strong campaign in Portugal, where he scored nine goals and registered a further seven assists.
