An incredible compilation of Arsenal target Houssem Aouar has emerged and it is easy to see why Mikel Arteta is a huge fan.
The Gunners are keen to strengthen their midfield this summer and have identified the Lyon star as their main target.

Technically sound on the ball and armed with a lovely pass, the 22-year-old has been tipped to become one of the world's best midfielders.
@Patron1s on Twitter has put all the Frenchman's best bits in one video and it showcases the talent Aouar possesses.
Arsenal fans have reacted to the video and they are desperate to see Aouar at the Emirates Stadium this season.

Aouar played a key role in Lyon's march to the Champions League semi-finals last season and was man of the match against Juventus back in February.
Reports emerged on Friday evening that he had agreed terms with Arsenal over a transfer - but Lyon president Jean-Michel Aulas has denied the claims.
Aulas revealed Arsenal had made a bid for a player, but confessed it was far short of Lyon's valuation.
"At Lyon there will be very few departures: for Houssem, Arsenal is much too far from his value," he stated on Twitter. "We count on him to make a big game in Lorient and lead OL in Champions League next year."
Last week also saw Aulas state Arsenal do not have the finances to sign Aouar this summer.

"Financially, Arsenal are like everyone else [in a tricky spot,]" the 71-year-old said.
"And Houssem could say to himself that the best thing would be to stay with us."
Arsenal have already signed Gabriel and Willian this summer while Dani Ceballos has returned for a second season on loan from Real Madrid.
