According to the French media Arsene Wenger has been keeping a close watch on Lille's Mathieu Bodmer, with scouts watching him for the last 6 weeks. With the possible exit of Edu and the injury to Gilberto Silva, Arsenal could find themselves short handed. And Arsene Wenger will look towards France and Lille to remedy that situation. Bodmer has been in scintillating form this season, staring as Lille have an impressive season, currently lying second behind Lyon.

Milan and Paris Saint Germain have also been publicly linked with the player, but if Wenger, were to make a move the French media seam confident that the midfielder would end off at Highbury.
