Arsenal have reportedly joined Tottenham Hotspur in the race to sign Feyenoord's Lamare Bogarde.
Spurs have recently been credited with an interest in the 16-year-old, who is the nephew of former Barcelona and Chelsea defender Winston Bogarde.
However, according to Football Insider, Arsenal are also exploring the possibility of signing the teenager, having been impressed by his performances at youth level.
Bogarde, who is yet to make his first-team debut for Feyenoord, largely operates as a holding midfielder but has also turned out as a centre-back during his youth career.
The Netherlands Under-16 international is also believed to be attracting interest from the likes of Borussia Dortmund, Schalke 04, Juventus and AC Milan.
Arsenal, meanwhile, have allegedly been offered the chance to sign Barcelona attacker Philippe Coutinho for £75m during this summer's transfer window.
