Arsenal have contacted Ajax regarding the availability of young Belgian international defender Toby Alderweireld. The player has been recommended by fellow countryman, and former teammate at Ajax, Thomas Vermaelen.
According to reports, Arsene Wenger has had scouts monitor Alderweireld for over a year and is suitably impressed.
However, the Gunners boss is only willing to offer 6m GBP, a lot less than Ajax are expected to demand for the centre back.
Alderweireld has been an important member of the first team at Ajax since 2009-2010, and already has 11 caps for Belgium despite competition for a first team spot in central defence.
