Germany coach Joachim Low has revealed that Arsenal winger Serge Gnabry may be a shock inclusion in his World Cup squad.

The 18-year-old only made his full debut for Arsene Wenger's side this season and scored his first goal for the club against Swansea in September.

Gnabry's progress has not gone unnoticed by Low, who has claimed he will be keeping an eye on the winger, despite him only appearing at Under-19 level for his national side.

He is quoted in the Express as saying: "The boy is really good. He has exceptional qualities.

"I'm still open to him making the World Cup squad. We have an eye on him."

Gunners' boss Wenger has praised the mentality of Gnabry during his first season and he was rewarded with a new deal last month.

He will be hoping for more first-team opportunities in coming weeks and with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain currently sidelined, the teenager could continue to feature.

Gnabry's club form will be crucial, with competition for places in the Germany squad at an all-time high.

Last night's win over England emphasised the number of options in the midfield area that Low has at his disposal, with the likes of Mesut Ozil and Thomas Muller not even involved.

Marco Reus, Mario Gotze and Chelsea's Andre Schurrle are also ahead of Gnabry in the pecking order but the German boss' comments can only boost his chances.
