European giants battle for ‘next Yaya Toure’

Guingamp midfielder Gianelli Imbula Wanga is slowly becoming one of the most sought-after players in European football, according to AS.

Imbula Wanga, 20, established himself as a first team regular some two years back and has since impressed visiting scouts with his rock-solid performances.

The holding midfielder, who has been likened to Yaya Toure, is heavily tipped to leave the Ligue 2 side for a big European club in the near future.

AS understands that Arsenal, Chelsea, QPR, Lyon and Rennes are all closely monitoring the talented youngster, although his high asking price might prove to be an obstacle to any deal.

Namely, Guingamp are holding out for €9 million, which is a high price to pay for a player who has yet to test his skills in France’s elite division.

Despite his fragile age, Imbula Wanga has already made a total of 73 league appearances for the French club.
