It is our understanding that Arsenal have been hot on the trail of the 19-year-old Senegalese defender for a long time.
Sources have told HITC that Faye’s versatility is said to be appeal to those in North London with Faye able to play centrally or on the left.
One potential stumbling block in the deal is Barcelona’s demands for the defender. A move to FC Porto stalled due to the buyback clause that the Catalan giants insisted on including in the deal.
These clauses are understood to be a non-starter for Arsenal and this is also a non-negotiable for those at the Nou Camp.
This would suggest that the chances of the Gunners landing the Senegalese defender are minimal as Barcelona do not want to cut ties with the defender completely.
