Arsenal and Juventus are among the top clubs in Europe closely looking at Toulouse’s teenage goalkeeper Alban Lafont, reports L’Equipe, via Get French Football.
Lafont, 17, has been a revelation in Ligue 1 since breaking onto the scene midway through last season.
The France Under-18 international still has four years remaining on his existing deal but is in talks with Toulouse over a bumper new contract in order to ward off interest from the likes of Arsenal and Juventus.
Of goalkeepers to have featured in more than 25 matches in the last two Ligue 1 campaigns only Clement Maury (63.9%) has a lower save success rate than Lafont (64.4%).
