Rumours are sweeping round Germany that Arsenal have handed rising star Daniel Hanslik a trial.

The midfielder, who currently plays for SV Steinbach, is known as one of the brightest young talents in his region and has scored 14 goals and registered five assists in 18 appearances this season.

Top clubs in his homeland have been battling over his services with Borussia Dortmund taking a close look at the 20-year-old during a trial last month.

But it now appears the Gunners have entered the race after Hanslik tweeted a picture of himself at London Colney.

He was alongside side fellow Germans Mesut Ozil and Skhodran Mustafi, as well as Mustafi’s father and advisor Kujtim - who is believed to look after Hanslik.

At present Kujtim is staying tight-lipped on exactly why the talented youngster was in north London, as are his club SV Steinbach, who said: "We agreed not to deliver information.”
