Arsenal are stepping up their interest in Hull City defender Josh Tymon, sources close to the player have told ESPN FC.
Tymon, who made his Premier League debut for Hull at the weekend against Sunderland, is still yet to sign a professional contract at the KCOM Stadium.
The 17-year-old is one of the lowest earners in the Premier League as he is still on a scholarship deal at Hull and a number of clubs are circling ready to lure the left-back away from Hull.
Arsenal have held a long-term interest in Tymon after he impressed in a fifth round FA Cup clash between the two sides at the Emirates last season, helping Hull to a 0-0 draw.
