Arsenal should rival Tottenham Hotspur for the signature of Ross Barkley, according to Here is the City.
The article claims that the Gunners should make a move for the Englishman who would replace Santi Cazorla in Arsene Wenger's midfield.
It is not the first time the 23-year-old has been linked with a move to the Emirates.
Former Everton skipper Alan Stubbs has claimed last month that the youngster will probably leave the club and that he should consider a move to Arsenal.
"The fact that Ross still hasn't signed, I think that's the biggest indicator that his future lies elsewhere," he said.
"With Tottenham you have got Dele Alli in a similar position and, looking at Dele, he is ahead of Ross at this moment in time.
"Looking at those teams I think Arsenal are probably a team that he could go to."
