Arsenal has expressed interest in Montpellier’s talented forward, Elye Wahi, following their observation of his performances in Ligue 1. The 20-year-old had an impressive season with Montpellier, scoring 19 goals. It is speculated that this could be his final campaign with the French club.
Arsenal sees Wahi as a potential star player and is reportedly considering a move for him in the current transfer window. While there are other clubs interested in securing his services, Wahi has expressed a preference for joining Arsenal if the club is genuinely interested in signing him.
Laurent Nicollin, the president of Montpellier, has acknowledged the interest from several teams in Wahi. and said via Esprit Paillade:
“His agent is talking to four or five big clubs, and I know who they are, but I won’t tell you. We know how much he loves Arsenal.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
It is great to hear that Wahi wants to play for us and it makes it easier to convince him to move to the Emirates.
However, it still boils down to whether he is a player we should have in our squad because he will make an impact.
If Arteta is convinced he can help, we trust Edu to get to work and get the deal sorted.

Is he better than Balogun? If he is not there is no need for him then. What we need is someone who is better than what we already have.
Loves the club or loves what the premiership pay the players ?
Until we see him in our shirt and see how he behaves – IF, which I hugely doubt, we will ever do – I see no way any fan can say with any degree of conviction, what his motivation for supposedly wanting a move to us, actually is.
Its certainly true that MOST players who move abroad, do so mostly for MONEY.
But until we see him, we cannot say anything plainly true about HIM, as an individual, at all.
IMO this rumour is, in any case, as false as almost all others on JA also are.
