Arsenal face losing Santi Cazorla next month.
Off contract in June, Cazorla is battling to overcome an achilles injury.
And Don Balon says while the Gunners stall on offering him new terms, a move to China could be on for the Spaniard.
Hebei China Fortune, which are coached by Manuel Pellegrini, have made contact with Cazorla's minders about a 2017 move to the Far East.
Pellegrini's agent is driving the negotiations, which have accelerated in recent weeks. Indeed, a deal could be struck in days.
Hebei China Fortune are willing to offer €4.5 million-a-year to Cazorla to take him to China.
