Arsenal are stepping up their pursuit of Anderlecht starlet Youri Tielemans.

TMW reports he is likely to leave Anderlecht during this summer's transfer window amid interest from Europe's elite.

And Arsenal are said to be one of the clubs most keen on securing his signature.

The Gunners will reportedly have to pay up to £17m to land their man.

But the interest of Italian giants Roma could spark a bidding war.
