| Alex Iwobi could be set for a loan move to Championship side Reading |
The 19-year-old had made five appearances for the Gunners this season but has started just one of those matches.
Iwobi's only start came in Arsenal's 3-0 defeat by Sheffield Wednesday in the Capital One Cup in October.
But the Nigerian could be set for some much needed playing time at Championship outfit Reading, according to the Daily Mail.
Brian McDermott is keen to bring Iwobi to the club following Nick Blackman's move to Derby County on Tuesday.
The Reading boss worked with Iwobi at Arsenal during his time as chief scout and Wenger trusts McDermott with helping the youngster develop as a player.
Arsenal host Sunderland on Saturday (3pm) in the third round of the FA Cup.
