Australian midfielder Tom Rogic is edging closer to a move to Europe's football elite with English Premier League giants Arsenal leading the chase for his signature.

After overcoming a horror lay-off due to injury, Rogic has bounced back to become one of Australia's hottest properties going into the upcoming European transfer window with Arsenal understood to have been in pursuit of the player for almost a year.

The North London club could submit an offer for Rogic once the transfer window opens in July having continued to monitor his progress in helping Celtic to a Scottish Premier League triumph this season.

The 23-year-old attacking midfielder played an integral role in the title win, and with two games left to play he remains Celtic's second top scorer behind striker Leigh Griffiths. Nine goals in 37 appearances across all competitions marked an impressive return for the former Central Coast Mariners player who was recommended to Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger by Reading coach, Brian McDermott.
