Struggling to get Ivan Perisic, Arsenal have had to turn to their plan B: Yannick Carrasco.

The Belgian, currently contracted at Dalian Yifang in China, has expressed a desire to return to Europe if he can, and a couple of Premier League sides, including the Gunners, have been reported as keen.

According to Euro United, Paris United’s account for all news they discover outside of the Ligue 1 champions, Arsenal have made a move for the 25-year-old by ‘placing an offer’.

The amount or format of the deal isn’t revealed, but the latest reports claimed they were interested in a loan with a view to buy in the summer (shock!).

Since his move to China, the Belgium international has scored seven goals and assisted his teammates nine times in 26 appearances.

Like Axel Witsel, he managed to remain in Roberto Martinez’s plans despite his move east, making his country’s World Cup squad, playing four games throughout the competition.
