Arsenal have reportedly expressed interest in signing young Turkish attacker Yusuf Yazici.
The 20-year-old has been with Super Lig outfit Trabzonspor since the age of 11 and has made 34 league appearances for the side since his debut in December 2015, contributing seven goals.
Yazici has also stepped up with the national team in recent months, registering an assist on his Turkey debut in a World Cup qualifier in June.
According to Fotomac, the Gunners have been monitoring Yazici's progress over the last year and are now contemplating making a bid of £10m in January.
Trabzonspor are said to be holding out for a figure closer to £16m, however, and are confident of driving a harder bargain amid rival interest from Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid, Monaco and AC Milan.
