Arsenal have made an enquiry for Werder Bremen star Diego, according to the player's father and agent.

The Brazilian has been one of the Bundesliga's star performers in recent seasons and has attracted the interest of a host of clubs.

The likes of Juventus, Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City have been linked with the classy playmaker and now Arsenal have been added to his list of admirers.

Diego is under contract at Bremen until 2011 and he recently admitted his future was in the hands of the German club.

The 23-year-old's representative and father Djair da Cunha claims Arsenal, Juventus and Real Madrid have made approaches for his services.

"There are a lot of rumours and all of them are not the truth," Djair da Cunha told Bild.

"But Real, Arsenal and Juve want my son.

"By the way, Juve sporting director Alessio Secco already came to Bremen to speak with Klaus Allofs."
