Spanish football expert Guillem Balague says former Paris Saint-Germain boss Unai Emery is in London to discuss a potential agreement with Arsenal.
The Gunners are without a manager after Arsene Wenger left at the end of the season.
Recent reports have claimed that Mikel Arteta is in pole position to take over from the Frenchman but Emery has now emerged as a shock candidate.
"Unai Emery is in London to hold talks with Arsenal. Arteta is still a candidate. More soon on my YouTube channel," Balague wrote on Twitter.
He later on told Sky Sports News: "I am hearing that Unai Emery is in London to hold talks with Arsenal.
"That has to do with the fact he is free, a top candidate and wants the job.
"We are talking about someone who has done such a great job in his career with the likes of Sevilla and only last week he was named manager of the year in France for the job that he did at PSG."
