Arsenal closing in on the signing of 17-year-old Barca starlet

The La Masia academy has kept on churning out wealth of talent year by year and the Gunners are known for famously raiding the Catalan side's youth academy.

According to the Metro, Arsenal are getting ready to have a raid once more after already signing Julio Pleguezuelo Silva earlier this summer. Arsene Wenger's latest target is the 17-year-old Paraguayan starlet Antonio Sanabria who recently had a great U-20 World Cup.


There has been speculation that Manchester City and Real Madrid are also interested on the player but this will not stop the Gunners from stealing the wonderkid from the academy for a fee in the region of £400k would be enough to make the player have a switch to the Emirates.
