Fabinho has been heavily linked to Manchester United, but Arsenal could yet hijack the deal.

Monaco midfielder Fabinho is a target for Manchester United, but Arsenal should look to hijack their deal for the Brazilian. Fabinho, who has openly admitted he could leave the club in the summer, has impressed in Ligue 1 this season.

The 24-year-old has scored and created seven goals in 23 league starts while boasting a tackle or interception every 20 minutes. Fabinho has been proficient going forward too, creating 27 chances and making 30 successful dribbles.

He would reportedly cost Arsenal over £80m, which could prove a stumbling block, but he is a talented midfielder who is worth the money.
