Southampton midfielder Victor Wanyama has revealed that he would be open to joining Arsenal this summer.
The Gunners are thought to be keen on a defensive midfielder despite the emergence of Francis Coquelin, with Mikel Arteta and Mathieu Flamini currently the back-up options.
"It would be nice to move to Arsenal," the 23-year-old, whose contract expires in 2017, told a Kenyan TV show.
"But at this moment such decisions can only be made by Southampton and that is where my concentration as a player is."
The North Londoners have also been linked with a move for Wanyama's teammate Morgan Schneiderlin.
Wanyama joined the Saints for a reported £12m from Celtic in 2013.
