Arsenal are reportedly looking to sign Coritiba youngster Yan Couto as a replacement for Hector Bellerin.

Arsenal have reportedly identified Brazilian youngster Yan Couto as a potential replacement for Hector Bellerin.

After recently being appointed as the new boss of the Gunners, Mikel Arteta is looking to make changes to the first-team squad at the Emirates Stadium.

However, according to Globo Esporte, the Spaniard is also eyeing signings for the future, with Couto said to be on his radar.

The teenager, who has just helped Brazil win the Under-17 World Cup, is allegedly valued in the region of £4.25m by current club Coritiba.

The report adds that Bayer Leverkusen are prepared to rival the Premier League giants for the right-back's signature.
