Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger will reportedly send club officials to watch Santos attacking midfielder Paulo Henrique Ganso this evening.
The 22-year-old, who has been linked with a move to the Gunners this summer, is part of the Brazil Olympic football squad that will face Great Britain in a warm-up match at Middlesbrough's Riverside Stadium.
Wenger has instructed club scouts to compile a detailed report on Ganso before he decides whether to make a bid for the player, according to The Mirror.
Ganso has made 157 first-team appearances for Santos, scoring 35 goals.
