Toulouse right-back Serge Aurier drops a hint that he is going to sign for Arsenal this summer. The North London club have been looking for a long-term replacement for Bacary Sagna, who confirmed last week that he will leave the Emirates Stadium after his seven years stay. Aurier has been linked with a £7.5 million move to Arsenal as a replacement for Sagna.
The 21-year-old Ivory Coast defender was warming up with his team ahead of a friendly fixture against Bosnia-Herzegovina when he came up to pose for a picture with an Arsenal fan. As Aurier came closer, the fan asked, “Are you coming to Arsenal, man?” to which Auier replied, “Yeah.”
Earlier in May, Aurier said, “ You can’t really say no to Arsenal.” In addition to this, Aurier is a known Arsenal fan as he has posted photos wearing an Arsenal jersey.
Arsenal are also suspected to be looking for Atsuto Uchida and Callum Chambers as possible replacement options for Sagna. But, this die-hard Arsenal fan is considered to be the front runner for the vacant right-back position. Since he was also named in the Ligue 1 team of the season, it further boosts his chances to complete a dream move to Arsenal.
