Arsenal to wind-up Barcelona further with swoop for 15yo Xavi Quintilla

Arsenal are set to wind-up Barcelona again with another raid on their academy.

The Mirror says young left sided defender Xavi Quintilla, 15, has attracted interest from Arsenal scouts and now Barcelona are stepping up their attempts to tie him down to a new contract.

Arsenal are already confident of capturing Jon Miquel Toral Harper, 16, from Barcelona and that has not stopped their interest, with Arsene Wenger already insisting they have done nothing wrong.

Barcelona president Sandro Rosell has urged Arsenal to stay away from their best youngsters but relations between the clubs have long been strained.
