Arsenal are interested in Brentford midfielder Christian Norgaard amid uncertainty over Thomas Partey's future.
Sources have indicated that the Gunners are exploring a deal worth an initial £10m, with a possible £5m in performance related add-ons for the 31-year-old Danish international.
Norgaard, who has not been a long-term target for the Gunners, is now on the club's radar as they seek experience in midfield with 32-year-old Partey having so far failed to agree terms over extending his contract.
Ghana midfielder Partey's contract expires next week and if a deal cannot be reached he will leave the club.
