Arsenal target Thomas Lemar has sent fans into a frenzy ahead of the January transfer window.

The Monaco man teased Gunners supporters by liking a post on Instagram which simply said: "Welcome to Arsenal."

Arsene Wenger failed to lure Lemar from Ligue 1 on the final day of the summer transfer window when they couldn't tempt the 22-year-old to step away from Champions League football with a bid worth £75m plus £17m in add-ons.

However, Monaco are prepared to listen to offers for Lemar after finishing bottom of their Champions League group and falling nine points behind pace-setters PSG in the race for the Ligue 1 crown.
