Arsenal set to sign Barcelona starlet

Arsenal are touted to emerge as one of the busiest clubs in the fast-approaching transfer window and they may be going to as far as Spain to get the needed reinforcement for their team.

One player who looks like he could be on his way to the Emirates is Barcelona prodigy Jose Arnaiz, according to reliable Spanish source Marca.

The 22-year-old Barcelona B product made his debut for the first team this season, playing and scoring in a win over Real Murcia in the Copa Del Rey back in October.

As a winger though, his chances of making regular appearances are going to be few and far between. He is the top scorer for Barcelona B this season but is yet to make an appearance in the league.

With the likes of Ousmane Dembele, Gerard Delofeu and Arda Turan vying for places in the first-team, it could be a while before Arnaiz is given a look in.

While the Gunners will be looking to bring in new legs, their top priorities will, of course, be to look and tie Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil down to the club. Both players are out of contracts in the summer.
