Toulouse's Abdennour would relish potential Arsenal move

Toulouse defender Aymen Abdennour has revealed that Arsenal are interested in his services and admits he would love to eventually move to a big club like the Gunners.

The 22-year old Tunisian international insists there is curiosity from Arsenal but has made it clear he is keen to develop further with his current club before making the plunge.

"It's [Arsenal's interest] true, I've heard a lot of talk while I've been at Toulouse," Abdennour told Footplus.

"They come to watch and scout players. They came to see our last three matches in which I put forward excellent performances for my side.

"My agent, Mr Abdelkader, he's the one focused on these things. He's a professional and he always tells me to work hard and whatever is good for me, God will help it through. I need to work and stay focused with my side.

"We're going through a good period a Toulouse, God willing, we'll continue on this path and then hopefully the two sides can come to an agreement. I'm not going to get involved.

"If there's something good for the player and for Toulouse in me being transferred to a big club like Arsenal then why not? Right now I'm still happy at my club. I want to improve at Toulouse."
