Arsenal and Inter Milan are becoming increasing interested in Genoa right back and Croatian international Sime Vrsaljko who has started the season in fine form.
The four time Croatia player has attracted some big clubs over the past few weeks with the performances that he has put on show even though he recently joined Genoa in the Summer.
Arsenal are on the lookout for a replacement for Bacary Sagna who has entered the final year of his contract meaning that he may leave the club on a free transfer at the end of this season.
The Gunners do not feel that having just Carl Jenkinson is adequate enough so they have sent out scouts to feel there way around for a new right-back with Vrsaljko on the radar.
The 21 year old who was formerly from Dinamo Zagreb only cost the Italian club 4 million euros and already the local press are reporting that a bid of at least 12 million euros would so the trick to persuade them into selling so soon.
