Arsenal are considering making a move for Bordeaux striker and Liverpool target Gaetan Laborde this summer.
A product of the Bordeaux academy, the 23-year-old striker's future has recently come under the scanner because of interest across the English Channel from Premier League clubs.
Liverpool have been keeping an eye on the French striker for a while and the club are reportedly prepared to offer €10m to the Ligue 1 club to take him to England this summer.
However, it seems the Reds are not the only Premier League club who are fluttering their eyes at Laborde as it has been claimed Arsenal are also interested in him.
And according to French outlet Foot Mercato, the Gunners are considering the option of rivaling Liverpool for the signature of the 23-year-old hitman during the transfer window.

With Arsene Wenger still at the helm, the north London club will back themselves to beat off competition from their Premier League rivals for the acquisition of a French talent such as Laborde.
The striker found the back of the net 13 times and provided five assists over 42 appearances in all competitions for Bordeaux last season.
Laborde has a contract until 2020 with the Ligue 1 outfit.
