Arsene Wenger is reportedly considering a move for Brazilian defender Wallace Oliveira Dos Santos.The versatile Fluminese centre-back, who can also play in the full-back positions, is only 15-years-old, but Arsenal have had the player watched and are ready to move in January when the player turns 16.The reports in The People follow word coming out of the players homeland, and the paper suggests that a £3.5 million figure could be placed on the table by the Gunners.The story comes less than a month after Wenger was linked with another precocious Fluminese talent, Wellington.According to the Daily Star, the 16-year-old striker has agreed a £3 million move to the Emirates. Personal terms will be polished off in January, and the talented youngster would add to the growing list of young talent in North London.Neither club has confirmed or denied either of these deals, and time will tell to see if this is simply paper talk or Arsene Wenger building another batch of wonder-kids at Arsenal.
