Todd Boehly can spoil perfect Arsenal transfer plan again as Chelsea target 'new Patrick Vieira'

Todd Boehly could rub salt in the wounds of Arsenal if Chelsea complete the signing of Everton star Amadou Onana. The 21-year-old midfielder, who has been labelled the 'new Patrick Vieira', has been heavily linked with an exit from Goodison Park following the sacking of Frank Lampard.

According to the Evening Standard, the Gunners are considering whether to try and hijack any Blues deal for either Onana or Brighton star Moises Caicedo. It's said that Chelsea are contemplating 'whether or not to try and take advantage' of the ensuing crisis at Everton.

The Toffees may sit in the Premier League relegation zone but the Belgium international has impressed under the former Blues boss. So much so that Roberto Martinez handed Onana his senior debut for his country and named him in the Red Devils' World Cup squad.
