Bayern Munich ready to raid Arsenal academy for Xavier Amaechi

Bayern Munich are ready to raid Arsenal's academy for top prospect Xavier Amaechi.

The 18-year-old is regarded as one of the hottest prospects in the Arsenal academy and has scored three times in Premier League 2 matches this season, says Football.London.

Amaechi signed his first professional deal on his 17th birthday and is contracted to the club until 2022.

But Bayern are among a host of clubs keeping tabs on the teenager with the view to making him the latest young English player to move to Germany.

Borussia Dortmund are also keen on Amaechi.
