Arsenal are opening talks with Gremio for youngster Bitello.
Gunners chief Edu has had Bitello watched this past year and talks with Gremio are set to kickoff, says Correio Do Povo.
Edu has dispatched a delegation to Porto Alegre to open negotiations with Gremio for the 23 year-old.
Gremio are seeking €10m to sell Bitello - which falls inside Edu's transfer budget.
Midfielder Bitello has a deal with Gremio to 2025.
