Arsenal have reportedly identified Sao Paulo youngster Antony as a potential summer signing.
The Gunners are unlikely to finish higher than fifth position in the Premier League standings this season, and it will lead to changes being made to Unai Emery's first-team squad.
The Spaniard will allegedly be provided with a limited transfer budget, but The Express claims that that may not rule out a big-money move for highly-regarded Antony.
The 19-year-old has only made six first-team outings for Sao Paulo, but Arsenal are said to be one of a number of clubs who want to sign the winger.
Agent Junior Pedroso is in Europe to discuss a possible move for the player, whose contract contains a £42m release clause.
The report claims that Ajax, PSV Eindhoven, Lyon and Monaco are also monitoring the situation.
