Arsenal are eager to sign Barcelona outcast Emerson Royal.
The 22-year-old defender has been on loan with Real Betis in La Liga the past two seasons.
The two clubs entered into a joint financial operation to sign the player.
Given Barcelona's finances, they may be inclined to sell Emerson rather than give him a chance in the first team next season.
Per Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona will hold talks over the right back's future this week.
If they decide to sell, Arsenal are very keen to sign him to replace wantaway defender Hector Bellerin.
