Arsenal are believed to be showing considerable interest in Metz young gun Mirza Mustafic.
The Bosnian-born Luxembourg youth international has caught the eye of a number of clubs in Europe with the Gunners at the head of a list which includes PSV Eindhoven and Borussia Monchengladbach.
Mustafic is being compared to Bosnian and AS Roma ace Miralem Pjanic and his father says he will seek the advice of Pjanic's father before making a decision on his son's future.
"It is true, there are many open options for my son," Sakib Mustafic told Avaz.
"But before we will decide, I would like to speak with Miralem Pjanic's father as he went through all this before me.
"But I can confirm that my son will play for a big European club next season. And in the next few months we will decide where he will move."
