Arsenal have asked Aston Villa to name their price for teenage sensation Daniel Crowley.

The 15-year-old midfielder, already dubbed the new Jack Wilshere, is rated as one of the biggest talents in the country and Arsenal are keen to agree a deal to bring him to north London.

Gunners scouts have been tracking the clever pass-master for months, and were in attendance at England's 2-1 defeat to Russia at under-17 level on Monday night, where Crowley again impressed.

It's now thought that Arsene Wenger has given the green light to push ahead with a transfer, and the club hope to be able to agree a compensation package with Villa to sign the player.

Arsenal are ready to offer up to £1million to sign Crowley, with more money to follow in bonuses and first-team appearances if he goes on to develop as expected.

However, Crowley remains committed to extending his development in the Midlands, and Arsenal will have to put together a convincing package to get him to move to the Emirates.

Manchester United and Chelsea are also known to be interested in Crowley.
