BR - According to Mirror Football, Arsenal is close to reaching a deal with Rennes midfielder Yann M'Vila.
While the Gunners have certainly tricked us with things like this before, it's not too early to take a deeper look at the young Frenchman.
It's important, of course, that Arsenal concentrate on finishing this season, as they continue to fight with Tottenham for the all-important third spot in the EPL, but it's hard not to get excited about what Arsene Wegner is putting together for 2012-13.
