Arsenal icon Alan Smith has warned Mikel Arteta over making a move to sign Paris Saint-Germain superstar Kylian Mbappe. The French striker has just 12 months left on his current deal and has informed PSG that he will not be activating his option to extend the contract by a further year.

Smith has warned his old club about the perils of potentially shattering their wage structure to sign Mbappe with PSG setting a reported £180million asking price. Smith told Gambling Zone: "I would think that the chances of Mbappe joining Arsenal are extremely unlikely.
