Earlier, Legit.ng had reported how Mikel Arteta who is the manager of Premier League side Arsenal is reportedly shifting his attention to the signing of Chelsea star Jorginho before the close of transfer window.
This is a result of Lyon's refusal to do business with the Gunners over the signing of super midfielder Houssem Aoaur.
Houssem Aoaur was named in the Lyon squad for their clash with Marseilles this weekend which suggests he is part of their plans for this season.
Arsenal will only pay in installments and the French club are not happy with those conditions coming from the North London side.
According to the report on Sky Sports, Arsenal would now be going for Jorginho with the hope of luring the player to the Emirates this summer.
Jorginho joined Chelsea from Napoli last two years under Maurizio Sarri and was in the team that beat Arsenal in the Europa League final.
