It seems some Arsenal fans have gone into a state of panic after Thomas Lemar dropped a transfer hint on social media.
The Monaco winger has been a target of the Gunners for some time and was the subject of a £92 million bid from Arsenal on this past summer’s transfer deadline day.
However, the deal fell through and Lemar stayed put. The 22 year-old is now being linked with a January switch to the Emirates as the Gunners prepare for the likelihood of both Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil leaving the club.
Arsenal supporters have been keeping track of the Monaco star’s social media activity in recent weeks, as the January transfer window looms ever closer.
Incredibly, Gooners stumbled upon Lemar dropping the biggest hint he wants to seal a move to north London.
While on Instagram the Frenchman ‘liked’ an image of himself posted alongside the caption: “Welcome to Arsenal”.
Take a look at how Arsenal fans have reacted on Twitter…
