Arsenal a reportedly keen on signing Dani Cellabos from Real Betis

 

The 19-year-old star was part of the Spain squad that won the UEFA European Under-19 Championships in Greece this year and he's won seven caps for the Under-21s.

And Spanish website Fichajes report that Arsenal are interested in a deal for the young Spanish midfielder.

 

He's played 61 times for Betis since his debut in 2014 and he's now a regular in their team that was promoted back to La Liga this season.

Ceballos' performances prompted Betis to offer him a new five-year-deal in October but he could be tempted to leave Spain if the Gunners come calling.

 

Arsene Wenger may consider a move for the young Spaniard but could face competition from Atletico Madrid and Napoli.

Betis have set a release clause in his contract that stands at £9.2million but could potentially rise to £11.5m with bonuses.
