Report: Arsenal want Udinese teenager Panos Armenakas

Arsenal are reportedly interested in signing Udinese youngster Panos Armenakas.

The 18-year-old represented Watford for two years between 2012 and 2014, before signing a three-year contract with Udinese in the summer of 2014.

In November of last year, the midfielder extended his contract with the Italian club for another year, but he is yet to feature for their first team.

According to Tuttomercatoweb.com, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has had the player scouted in recent months and could make a move when the January transfer window opens for business.

Armenakas, who has also previously spent time with Italian side Brescia, was born in the United States, but has represented both Greece and Australia at Under-17 level.
