The French midfielder turned down the advances of his former club in favour of a summer switch to the Emirates Stadium
Matteo Guendouzi admits that Paris Saint-Germain were interested in signing him before he agreed on a move to Arsenal.
The teenager has been impressive since moving to the Emirates Stadium in a deal reportedly worth around £7 million ($7.8m) from French Ligue 2 side Lorient.
And Guendouzi has confirmed that PSG - the club he started his youth career with before joining Lorient's ranks - had been keen to re-acquire his services before the Gunners came calling.
