Bissouma, 24, has made 29 appearances this term, attracting admiring glances from around Europe.

The Gunners were reportedly interested in acquiring his signature in January, as Mikel Arteta plots a squad overhaul in North London.

Nothing came of it at the time, but the Express claim that Arsenal have asked to be kept in the loop, regarding any movements surrounding Bissouma’s future.

The midfielder will have two years remaining on his current Brighton deal come the summer.

But should the Seagulls get relegated, it is likely he will want to move on.

Football London claimed in January that Bissouma ‘loves the Premier League’ and is a ‘huge Gunners fan’.

Arsenal have recent experience of dealing with Brighton, having signed Mat Ryan on loan in January.

The Express also claim that Gunners chiefs are chasing Eintracht Frankfurt defender Evan N’Dicka.
