Real Sociedad striker Carlos Vela has hinted that he would welcome a return to former club Arsenal this summer.
The Mexican international joined the La Liga club from the Gunners on a permanent deal in 2012, having failed to cement a place in the first-team at the North London club.
However, Vela's form at the Basque club in recent seasons is believed to have attracted interest from a host of top European clubs, and Arsenal could buy him on a bargain by triggering a buy-back clause inserted into his contract.
"One possibility is my clause of €30million (£24.6m), but there's other options and we're looking at that, to see what we can and can't do," Vela said.
"Arsenal can come back for me at €4million (£3.3m) at any time, which is €1million more than Real Sociedad paid. I look at things differently these days and I won't close the door on Arsenal, or any team in England. I think I'm better prepared to play in another country now."
Velas has scored 19 goals for Sociedad in all competitions this season.
