Arsenal are reportedly set to make a surprise move to sign Colombian centre-back Mario Yepes, according to The Metro.
The Gunners are short of options in central defence, following their failure to sign a suitable replacement for Thomas Vermaelen, who joined Barcelona during the early part of the transfer window.
The Metro claims that manager Arsene Wenger could offer a short-term deal to veteran defender Yepes to provide cover for Per Mertesacker, Laurent Koscielny and summer signing Calum Chambers.
Yepes was part of the Colombian squad which reached the quarter-finals at the World Cup in Brazil.
