Arsenal are planning a raid on Ajax for Tottenham Hostpur target Toby Alderweireld.
The Belgium international defender has recently been linked with moves to Everton, Newcastle United and Spurs.
Russian Premier League side Spartak Moscow are also thought to have held talks with the player's agent.
However Alderweireld, 24, is understood to prefer a move to the Premier League and would link up with international team-mate Thomas Vermaelen should he join Arsenal.
Ajax are expected to accept offers in the region of £6 million for a player whose contract is due to expire at the end of next season.
