The 18-year-old, is the next big talent to emerge from Barca’s academy and he announced himself in style with a goal against Elche CF on his La Liga debut last week.
Reports in England and Spain are now suggesting that Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is now keen to spring for a move to take him away from the Nou Camp, and has been boosted by the news that his buy-out clause stands at just £9.4 million.
Barcelona, though, are said to be well aware of Arsenal’s interest in the player, and are now set to open fresh contract talks with the striker as they are prepared to offer much more money to keep him at the club.
Arsenal may find it difficult to compete with the Spaniards, but the Gunners have poached several starlets from Barca in recent years including Cesc Fabregas, Hector Bellerin and Jon Toral.
