Arsenal have reportedly suffered a blow in their pursuit of a Barcelona starlet.
The Gunners are looking to add reinforcements to their squad this summer as Mikel Arteta's side aim to win the Premier League title after coming close to doing so last campaign.
In addition to targeting senior stars, Arsenal are also assessing players who could help them in the future.
Arsenal are said to have offered a 'monster' deal to a highly-rated Barcelona youngster.
However, at this stage it appears unlikely that a move will come to fruition.
