According to The Mirror, Kylian Mbappe is open to the idea of joining Arsenal because it would give him the opportunity to emulate his idol, Thierry Henry.
The talented striker, who currently plays for Paris Saint-Germain, may leave Ligue 1 in the summer as his contract is set to end. However, it is widely believed that Real Madrid is the frontrunner in securing his services.
The paper reports: “Kylian Mbappe is open-minded to the possibility of joining Arsenal because it would enable him to follow in the footsteps of his idol, Thierry Henry.
“The France forward, 25, is once again the subject of intense transfer speculation after entering the final year of his contract at Paris Saint-Germain, although it remains to be seen whether or not he will actually leave the Ligue 1 champions.
“Mbappe was courted relentlessly by Real Madrid back in 2022 before deciding against a move to the Bernabeu at the eleventh hour. Los Blancos are still in the frame for his signature, but it’s been claimed in recent weeks that Mbappe is also open to other avenues of interest.”
