Arsenal are among four Premier League clubs chasing Barcelona youngster Pablo Moreno, according to Mundo Deportivo.

In addition to the Gunners, Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United are also monitoring the 15 year old’s contract situation at Barca.

Currently part of the youth setup at La Masia, Moreno is yet to sign a professional deal at the Catalan side, but his youth contract expires at the end of the season, and will be allowed to talk to other clubs.

Barca have already lost a number of young players to other teams this season, and to prevent the talent drain from continuing, club director Pep Segura has scheduled a meeting with the player’s agent to discuss a new contract.

Moreno is a striker, and has scored 18 goals at youth level this season. He has been called up for the Spanish Under 16 side, and is said to be one of the brightest talents coming through the youth ranks at Barcelona.
