Arsenal will battle Chelsea for rising Benfica star Nelson Semedo, as the Blues prepare to swoop for the defender in the January transfer window.
Portuguese newspaper O Jogo (h/t Alex Wood of the Daily Star) reported Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho will return to his homeland to secure the 22-year-old's services, but he will have to "fight off" Gunners boss Arsene Wenger, as the pair battle for the prodigy.
The right-back recently made his debut for Portugal in a 2-1 victory over Serbia, and he has continued to impress at the Stadium of Light in Lisbon.
