Ilias Akhomach is set to become the next youngster star

At the end of current season, the 18-year-old is anticipated to depart the team as a free agent, and Leeds has been leading the competition to sign him. Arsenal has now joined the Whites in the hunt for his signature, as reported by Sport. The Whites have worked hard to establish themselves as the favourites for his signature thus far. According to the source, Leeds is still in the lead, but Arsenal has been tracking him and is a team that might prevent his move to the Whites.

There is a heated competition for his services since Sevilla, AC Milan, and an unidentified club are also interested in signing him. Akhomach's entourage might not want him to go on loan or to the U21 team if he joins Arsenal right away.
