Premier League leaders Arsenal are leading the race to sign Brazilian wonderkid Vitor Roque.

The teenager is one of the hottest properties in South America at present, starring for Athletico Paranaense.

While the 18-year-old's dream is to play for Barcelona, his father and representatives have flown to London to talk with Arsenal.

Mundo Deportivo have reported that Arsenal are at the top of the queue to secure his signature.

The Gunners have more of a chance than Chelsea and Barcelona, as they are pushing hardest to complete the deal quickly.

Roque may also believe that he has the best path to the first team with the Gunners.
