Arsenal’s hopes of landing Toulouse full-back Serge Aurier could be threatened by London rivals Chelsea this summer after The Blues had the defender watched during his side’s 2-1 defeat at home to Lille on Sunday.
The Gunners are reportedly keeping tabs on Aurier, who has been lined up by Arsene Wenger to replace Bacary Sagna if the Frenchman fails to extend his contract and leaves in the summer. However, the Ivorian was watched by scouts from Stamford Bridge on Sunday and were impressed as he grabbed his sixth goal of a prolific campaign for him.
The 21 year old emerged from the ranks at Lens before transferring to Toulouse, where he has established himself as one of Ligue 1’s most promising defenders.
