Borussia Dortmund Striker Mohamed Zidan Claims Arsenal Want Him
Egyptian alludes to Gunners scouts tracking his progress…
By Alan Dawson
Borussia Dortmund and Egypt striker Mohamed Zidan believes he will be a transfer target for Arsenal.
Zidan, 28, thrust himself into the English limelight due to his goal against England for the Pharoahs at Wembley last week.
"My agent spoke to me after the game and told me about Arsenal’s interest," the forward said, according to The Daily Star.
"He asked me to try to impress them, and become the first Egyptian to play for the Gunners."
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is also believed to be tracking Girondins de Bordeaux striker Marouane Chamakh, with some reports suggesting a pre-contract agreement has already been agreed.
