Arsenal are working on a deal to sign highly rated strikerIgor Tyjon from Blackburn Rovers.
The 17-year old has turned from the offer of a new contract from the Championship club, as he looks for new challenges and the chance to play at a higher level.
The Gunners made two bids to sihn him last summer, with the higher one ₤2.2 million, but both were rejected at the time.
However, with his representatives now making it clear that he wants to move, Blackburn are likely to cave into the pressure.
There is no question, however, that Tyjon is ready to compete for a first-team berth at the Emirates just yet.
Instead he will join the academy ranks, and will hope to progress from there.
