French attacking midfielder Yoann Gourcuff (pictured) could be on the way from AC Milan to Arsenal, according to sources in the English media.

It is thought that the 21 year old would command a fee of around 20 million euros, with boss Arsene Wenger said to still be interested on his services after missing out on them in 2006.

For those who like "next" comparisons, Gourcuff has been lauded by the French media as the "next Zidane".

But for those more interested in tangible achievements, Gourcuff has not had the easiest time at the San Siro, playing just 10 Serie A games in his debut season.

Prior to 2006/07, though, he was one of Ligue 1's top performers as he took on the attacking midfield role with Stade Rennais.

Such brilliant form for the Rennes outfit saw Milan swoop for him on a contract that will keep him under contract until 2011.

He started excellently with the rossoneri, playing extremely well against the likes of AEK Athens, but since then has tailed off slightly.

Whether that means that the door is now open for Arsenal to move for him - or even if they want to - remains to be seen.

I guess wel'l just have to keep on disagreeing about Adebayor though.

Well... what to do... (IMG:http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) I just hope he keeps on scoring (unless Arsenal meet Milan), that will keep us both happy!
