Three Premier League giants have joined Real Madrid in the race for Brazil U17 captain Alan.
AS says Arsenal are tracking Brazil under-17 star Alan Guimaraes and hope to beat out Manchester United and Liverpool for the Palmeiras star.
The Premier League giants could all miss out though as Real Madrid have a 'verbal agreement' with the player's agent.
Alan impressed in the South American under-17 championship with the Selecao winning the tournament unbeaten.
Alan has continued his rise by flourishing in India at the under-17 World Cup and the Gunners may now be forced to pay his €50m release clause to beat out the competition.
