L’Equipe claim the attacking midfielder is wanted by the Gunners but Adli would prefer not to move to the Premier League.

Adli starred for the French in the Uefa Youth League this season and would only cost a nominal compensation fee of around £250,000 at the end of his contract.

Barca are keen to beef up their pool of young players coming through the system, despite being prepared to spend big on first-team stars.

Juventus boast a reputation for allowing young player to develop with a proven track record of promoting kids through the system if they are good enough.

And they are well known for their ability to get players on the cheap.

But a move to Barcelona looks the most likely destination if Adli is to leave the French capital.

If the Spanish giants can pull of this move, it could be seen as a shot back at PSG who bagged Neymar for a world record fee last summer.

There is still some bad blood between the clubs over the £198million move.
