Revealed: Arsenal's surprise 'replacement for Thomas Partey' if contract talks continue to stall - and he has been hailed as the next N'Golo Kante!

Arsenal are reportedly considering a move for Sevilla midfielder Lucien Agoume as a replacement for Thomas Partey.

The Gunners are discussing the 23-year-old among a number of options, according to The Athletic.

Partey is on course to leave the Emirates after failing to agree a new deal, with his contract expiring at the end of the month.

As such, Mikel Arteta will need to bolster his midfield and Agoume - who some online have dubbed 'the next N'Golo Kante' for his ball-winning ability - has emerged as an option.
