Arsenal have reportedly been scouting Bristol City midfielder Han-Noah Massengo.
That’s according to the Bristol Post, cited by The Boot Room, who claim that the Gunners have been keeping tabs on the Frenchman following his move to Ashton Gate over the summer.
The Robins paid AS Monaco £7 million for the 18-year-old’s services, and he’s been a regular under Lee Johnson this season in City’s impressive start to the Championship campaign.

The teenager hasn’t been on the end of a defeat in his nine Championship appearances so far, taking to life in the second-tier with ease.
His quality on the ball, tireless work rate and extravagant hairstyle have led to comparisons with Arsenal star Matteo Guendouzi.
Massengo has already been called up by France at Under-19 level and is hot on the tail of Guendouzi, who mainly plies his international trade with the U21 side.
The best bet for the Gunners, should they wish to pursue a deal, could be to tempt the Robins into selling by loaning him back to the Championship side, similar to what they did with William Saliba and Saint Etienne over the summer.
Massengo’s consistent displays this season could result in more sides keeping tabs on the teenager, so Arsenal may have to act fast if they are to sign their next potential midfield star.
