Scouting guru Toni Lima tipped off Arsenal about Orlando City attacker Facundo Torres.

The 22-year-old has impressed in the MLS this season and the Gunners have been made aware of him by scout Lima.

Lima has been credited with recommending Neymar to Barcelona and Philippe Coutinho to Inter Milan when both were playing in their homeland of Brazil.

The Evening Standard report that Torres could be signed to provide competition for Bukayo Saka.

Torres joined Orlando from Penarol in his native Uruguay for around £7.75million in January.

Since touching down in the United States the 22-year-old has scored 14 goals and registered ten assists in 40 league matches.
