Arsenal have reportedly agreed a deal to sign French youngster Yassin Fortune from Lens.
The 16-year-old has previously been linked with other prominent clubs, including Manchester United, but the French U16 international, who usually plays as a striker, has chosen to join Arsenal, according to France Football.
If he does sign, Fortune would form part of Arsenal’s scholarship intake for next season, which could also include Cypriot defender Kostas Pileas.
