Wolverhampton Wanderers are reportedly back in for Ainsley Maitland-Niles after the versatile midfielder asked Arsenal for a loan exit.
The Gunners rejected a £15m offer for the 23-year-old from their fellow Premier League side in the summer.
Wolves instead turned to Barcelona's Nelson Semedo, but The Mirror suggests that Maitland-Niles - able to play in a variety of positions in midfield and defence - is back on their radar.
The England international is said to be seeking a move away from the Emirates Stadium for the next five months after struggling for minutes under manager Mikel Arteta.
Atletico Madrid have also previously showed an interest in Maitland-Niles, it is claimed, but the Arsenal academy product is expected to remain in the Premier League if a temporary exit is sanctioned.
Eric Garcia 'agrees to play for free to seal Barcelona move'

Barcelona presidential candidate Victor Font has claimed that Eric Garcia is so desperate to join the club from Manchester City that he is willing to to play for free.
City boss Pep Guardiola confirmed earlier this week that he expects the 20-year-old to leave the Etihad Stadium when his contract expires in the summer.
Garcia is keen on a return to former side Barca, who have the option of landing the centre-back six months early for a small fee.
According to Font, who is in the running to success Josep Maria Bartomeu in March's rescheduled Camp Nou elections, Garcia is prepared to forgo any salary until the end of the season.
"We're asking the acting board to sign Eric Garcia," he told reporters. "[Ronald] Koeman's asked for him, our sporting structure [if we're elected] support it and the player wants to come because there's a European Championship this summer.
"He [would be] fundamental in the fight for three trophies this season. We know City would accept €3m plus add-ons and we wouldn't have to pay until next season - that's a lot less than Barca offered four months ago.
"The player's also ready to make a big effort and not be paid a salary until the end of the season."
Garcia has spent the past two seasons in City's first team and has made eight appearances in all competitions this campaign.
