Arsenal interested in Crystal Palace youngster this summer

Mikel Arteta has brought young players in recent windows.

The Gunners could be interested in signing a 20-year old Crystal Palace midfielder who has scored four goals and laid on seven assists in his debut season in the Premier League.

Michael Olise has been in top form this season and apparently Mikel Arteta has his eye on the youngster.

Former Spurs forward Darren Bent believes Olise could make an Emirates move in the summer.

‘He is certainly the type of player Mikel Arteta will like,’ Bent told Soccer Saturday.

‘We know he likes young players and this kid has really impressed me. For large spells I thought it was just all about Wilfried Zaha and Eze but at the moment he has himself into the team and been sensational.

‘He can go past people, he has a nice range of passing, he can score a goal and his final delivery has been lovely. I think he is a top player.

‘It makes sense – if you look at what Mikel Arteta has done in the transfer market at the start of the season, all the players were 24 or younger. He [Olise] fits that kind of mould.

‘Someone of that quality, it doesn’t surprise me to see Arsenal and those top sides interested.’
