Arsenal are reportedly closely watching the progress of Hajduk Split midfielder Nikola Vlasic, who has previously been linked with a move to Tottenham Hotspur.
The 18-year-old, who is also said to be interesting Inter Milan, has had scouts from around Europe watching his performances over the last 12 months.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Arsenal are unlikely to move for the Croatian Under-19 international in January, but will launch a bid next summer if the winger continues to impress.
Despite being just 18, Vlasic has already made 58 first-team appearances for his Croatian club, including 21 in all competitions this season.
During the 2014-15 campaign, the teenager, who was linked with Spurs at the age of 16, scored four times in 37 games for Split.
