Arsenal have signed Romania Under-16 captain Vlad Dragomir from ACS Poli Timisoara for a fee of around £71,000, according to reports.
The midfielder, allegedly also on Inter Milan's radar, is reportedly set to begin his career at the North London club as a first-year scholar.
Dragomir, who is said to have penned a three-year contract, is quoted by The Guardian as saying: "I am very glad and I hope not to disappoint anyone. The Arsenal offer seemed the best to me, I felt that this is my place."
Arsenal will announce the full list of their first-year scholars next week.
