Arsenal to sign Portuguese wonderkid?

Arsenal could get their hands on one of the best upcoming talents from the Primeira Liga next summer, according to The People.

Porto B striker Andre Silva is considered as a hot prospect for the future, and his denial to sign a new contract at the club has sparked speculation over his next move.

Silva is believed to have rebuffed a new deal and is likely to exit Porto when his contract expires at the end of the season.

The People claims that the 18-year-old striker favours a move to the Premier League, and this could tempt the Gunners into offering a pre-contract to the player in January.

Gunners manager Arsene Wenger is known for bringing up top-class talent from the youth level and the potential signing of Silva could prove to be a master-class in years to come.

League rivals Chelsea are also monitoring the player's transfer situation.
