The Mirror says Arsenal are determined to see off competition from Newcastle United in order to bring David to the Emirates.
The Gunners lost out to the Toon Army's mega-money last month in the pursuit of Bruno Guimaraes, but the Londoners can lean on their previous dealings with Lille to land the Canadian.
Arsenal have purchased both Gabriel and Nicolas Pepe from the French club in recent seasons, and are thought to enjoy a good relationship with those at the Stade Pierre Mauroy.
David has scored 16 goals in 34 appearances for the Ligue 1 outfit this season, helping them into the knockout stages of the Champions League.
