Arsenal could make a move for Napoli's Nikola Maksimovic in the January transfer window, according to reports in Italy.
The Gunners have been linked with a winter window swoop for the defender by Football Italia as manager Arsene Wenger looks to strengthen his options at the back.
The report goes on to claim that Arsenal sent scouts to watch Maksimovic in action during the October international break - the centre-back playing for national side Serbia - and are giving serious consideration to making an official bid for his services.
However, there are a couple of potential road blocks that may prevent the north London outfit from actively pursuing Maksimovic in January or in any capacity.
