Le Mans starlet Gervinho has reiterated his desire to secure a transfer to Arsenal.

The Ivory Coast international declared earlier in the summer that Arsenal were keen to sign him.

The Gunners' interest appears to have cooled but Gervinho feels a move could still go ahead in the future if he keeps improving.

The 21-year-old striker admits he has always longed to play for Arsenal and he is determined to catch the eye of Arsene Wenger.

"It will depend on my good work at Le Mans," Gervinho told skysports.com.

Freedom

"I need to keep working and Arsenal will open the door for me.

"I have dreamed about that club. To play for Arsenal will be the best day of my life and I will do anything to play for that team."

Asked why Arsenal were his dream club, Gervinho replied: "It is their game, the freedom the manager give them to express their qualities.

"They are all young players and out of all the top European clubs they are the only ones who work like this. I really love that."
