Arsenal Set To Bid For Younes Belhanda

Even though Younes Belhanda only just transferred to Dynamo Kiev back in 2013, Arsenal might have a chance to land the 24 year old attacking midfielder. The Morocco international admitted that it is his dream to perform in the Premier League. The Gunners who are in desperate need of some world-class transfers will surely jump at the chance of landing such a talented player.

Belhanda hinted towards the fact that he might be leaving Kiev at the end of the season despite his freshly signed contract. The former Montpellier man who left for the Ukraine for €10 million has maintained his price might just be up Wenger’s alley. The Frenchman is well-known for his thorough negotiation skills and his need for value when he signs a player.


According to Metro, the 24 year old not only expressed his desire to perform in the UK but also said Arsenal is his favorite club. It is still a mystery why Belhanda ended up in the Ukraine instead of Emirates. He was not an expensive player and he had all the necessary skills to perform next to Ramsey or Wilshere.

Since he moved to Kiev, the Morocco international has scored 6 times and made 18 appearances. He is already a fan favorite despite his recent comments. Belhanda pointed out that Dynamo is not his final stop and that he plans on moving to a new club sometime soon. If Arsenal want to place a bid for the attacking midfielder, they will have to make a good offer as the 24 year old is under contract until 2018.
