Arsenal are said to have convinced highly-regarded Real Madrid scout Paulo Xavier to move to the club.
The Athletic states that Xavier has left his role with Real as their Latin American scout.
He is set to perform a similar role under Edu Gaspar for the Premier League giants.
Arsenal are building a scouting network that can help them nab the best young players in the world.
Real have long been known for their ability to find top young talent, especially in Brazil.
Xavier will be announcing the new role that he is taking up with Arsenal in the coming days.
