Yann M’Vila 'will join Real Madrid or Arsenal next summer'

Yann M’Vila will sign for Arsenal or Real Madrid next season according to one of his Rennes team-mates.

The France midfielder is one of the most highly-rated talents in European football and his club rejected a number of bids for him in the summer, including an offer from Arsenal.

Although Rennes were able to keep him in the last transfer window, his friend and team-mate Kader Mangane says the 21-year-old is likely to leave next summer.

“There has been no decision taken so far,” Mangane told Goal.com. “He might go to England but he also likes the Spanish league. I don’t think he will leave in January but I think he will join Real Madrid or Arsenal next summer.

“The top clubs are right to scout him as I see him with a big career in front of him. Yann has the potential to be one of the biggest players in the world. He has extraordinary abilities.

“You can see he is a fantastic player from what he does in training. Yann is good enough to play anywhere in the world. He is a complete player. He has a good eye for the game, he is technically excellent and he is also very good at defending and regaining balls.”
