Arsenal interested in Barcelona teen Xavier Quintilla

Arsenal are interested in Barcelona teen Xavier Quintilla.

The 15 year-old is under consideration at the Gunners and has been watched by chief scout Steve Rowley, says the Daily Mail.

Footballers in Spain are not permitted to sign professional contracts until their 18th birthday - a rule Arsenal first took advantage of in 2003 by signing Cesc Fabregas from Barcelona when he was 16.

Hector Bellerin and Jon Miguel Toral Harper, both 16, left Barca for Arsenal last month.
