Arsenal reach agreement to sign Lens youngsters Jeff Reine-Adelaide and Yassin Fortune

Arsenal have reached an agreement with Lens for Jeff Reine-Adelaide as well as Yassin Fortune.

Both players are forwards who can alternate in the attacking midfielder role and have represented France at U17 level.


Fortune had been a target for Manchester United but they felt the asking price was too high a gamble.

Lens have agreed a deal worth around £3million plus bonuses on appearances for the two players.

Reine-Adelaide and Yassin Fortune will join Yaya Sanogo in making the move to the Emirates Stadium after impressing in France.
