Arsenal's manager is considering a GBP 5 M bid for Bulgarian striker Valeri Bojinov, according to the Daily Mirror.
The teenage Lecce forward is also said to be a target for Barcelona.
Bojinov joined Lecce at the age of 13, and two years later became the youngest foreign footballer ever to play in Serie A.
He made his debut with the national team of Bulgaria this summer, in a EURO 2004 encounter with the Italians. His second national team match was a friendly against Eire, and Bojinov scored the only Bulgarian goal for 1-1.
