Arsenal boss Wenger gets serious about Barcelona outcast Pedro

Arsenal are chasing Barcelona attacker Pedro.AS reports this morning that while Chelsea and Manchester United have expressed tentative interest, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is making a concrete move for the winger.

Pedro is inside the final 18 months of his Barca deal and becoming increasingly fed-up with his bit-part role under coach Luis Enrique.

"I have a contract, but you never know what can happen," he said.

Barca chiefs are prepared to sell for a price in the region of €25-30 million.

Chelsea and United are keen, but it is Wenger who is now actively laying the groundwork to tempt Pedro to England this summer.
