Hertha Berlin are reportedly keen to sign Arsenal midfielder Matteo Guendouzi on a permanent deal.

The 21-year-old saw his relationship with the Gunners break down in the latter stages of last season and subsequently joined Hertha on loan for the 2020-21 campaign.

The Frenchman has been in impressive form for the German outfit, contributing one goal and one assist in seven Bundesliga appearances.

According to Del Tagesspiegel, Hertha want to sign the midfielder on a permanent deal and are planning on entering talks with Arsenal over a potential fee.

An altercation with Brighton & Hove Albion's Neal Maupay in June led to Guendouzi losing his spot in the Gunners squad, and he ended the season training away from Mikel Arteta's side.

The France Under-21 international's contract at the Emirates Stadium is due to expire in June 2022.
