Arsenal are planning to bring him as a replacement of their French fullback Bacary Sagna who will be out of contract at the end of this season while it was also reported that Sagna might be offered a new contract.
Aurier told Foot Mercato that there is no reason to refuse a move to Arsenal, it will be a dream for every player to play for Arsenal and everyone will give a positive response if they have an opportunity to join the London outfits.
The right back has scored five times in 56 games for the Toulouse in Ligue 1.
And for the other clubs he added that they are also good, it is good to be linked with several big clubs especially from Premier league clubs.
French big spending clubs Monaco and Paris Saints Germain are also interested in his services but the defender is keen to gain some experience outside of France.
He continued: "PSG and Monaco are building and, within two or three years, may be the best teams in the world.
"But English League suits me the most, in terms of my commitment, my playing style. Later, Germany and Spain may also be pleasant."
So he has clearly said he would like to play for Arsenal while Chelsea are also interested.
Which side should he join?
