A number of Premier League clubs are believed to be interested in signing Arsenal teenager Chuks Aneke.

A host of Premier League clubs are hot on the heels of Arsenal youngster Chuks Aneke, according to Sky Sports News.

The midfielder is believed to be a target of top flight clubs including Wigan Athletic and West Bromwich Albion.

The 18-year-old, who made his debut for the Gunners in the early stages of the Carling Cup this season, has been likened to Manchester City's Yaya Toure by boss Arsene Wenger.

"Chuks is a bit like Yaya Toure - he has body power and good technique," Wenger told the club's official website.

"We had Yaya here [on trial] and for me Chuks is a bit similar because he can play behind the striker or in a deeper role as well."

A number of Championship clubs are also thought to be keeping tabs on the teenager.
