Arsenal remain in the hunt for Udinese midfielder Jakub Jankto.

The Czech Republic youngster penned new terms with the Zebrette just this month.

But the Sunday Mirror says Arsenal are stepping up their bid to sign Jankto after scouting him for almost a year.

Jankto, already dubbed the 'new Rosicky', has been a revelation this season at the age of just 21.

Arsenal first began tracking the player in the summer of 2016 and he has a release clause of around £6million. West Brom and Napoli are also keen.
