Lorenzo Insigne’s agent Antonio Ottaiano has said the forward is flattered by interest from both PSG and Arsenal.

The 24-year-old, who has long been linked with a move to Emirates Stadium, has scored seven goals in 16 starts this term.

Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has confirmed the club will be active in the January window as the Premier League-leaders look to strengthen amid something of an injury crisis.

Insigne's agent, however, says the Napoli star welcomes interest from abroad but plans to remain in Italy for the time being.

"We enjoy the interest from Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal," Insigne’s representative told Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli.
