Arsenal and PSG are competing for the signature of 13-year-old goalkeeper Lucas Kayombo

ARSENE WENGER  is going head to head with Paris Saint Germain in a bid to bring the services of young French goalkeeper Lucas Kayombo to North London.

But there’s a reason you haven’t heard of him yet – Wenger’s latest transfer target is just 13-years-old.

Despite his age the FC Solitaires goalkeeper is already on the radar of both Premier League and Ligue 1 football clubs, according to France Football.

Kayombo, who was voted the best goalkeeper of the Panama Cup and the Danone Cup in Lille, could be leaving Eastern Paris in the coming months.

Both Arsenal and PSG are eager for scouts to pick up young talents from around France and this player in particular is considered as a ‘phenomenon of his age group’.

It’s thought that FC Solitaires have some sort of ongoing partnership with the Ligue 1 outfit and so could be more likely to win the race for Kayombo’s signature.
