Arsenal have stepped up their interest in Hull City defender Josh Tymon, according to reports.
The 17-year-old, who made his Premier League debut for the Tigers at the weekend against Sunderland, has not yet signed a professional contract at the KCOM Stadium.
According to ESPN, the Gunners have held a long-term interest in Tymon after he impressed in the FA Cup clash between the two sides at the Emirates Stadium last season, helping Hull to a goalless draw.
Liverpool and Everton are also said to be admirers of Tymon, who is reportedly on a scholarship wage of £150 per week at Hull.
