Thomas Lemar skies shot and takes shockingly bad free-kick
Lemar has been on Arsenal's radar for the majority of the current transfer window following the arrivals of Sead Kolasinac and Alexandre Lacazette.
The Gunners have seen several bids for the Frenchman rebuffed by last season's Ligue 1 champions.
Last week Monaco boss Leonardo Jardim admitted Lemar could leave the club despite previously stating he was not for sale.
The signing of winger Rachid Ghezzal today on a free transfer from Lyon adds further to suggestions Lemar is on his way out of the club.
