Arsenal have invited Montenegrin wonderkid Veljko Batrovic for a trial, skysports.com understands.

Batrovic, who is currently with FK Bubamara, is regarded as one of the most exciting prospects in European football.

The 15-year-old is one of the most sought-after talents in the world with the likes of Real Madrid and AC Milan all courting his services.

However, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is ready to steal a march on his rivals by offering the skilful attacker the chance to join the Gunners for training.

Batrovic, who has been likened to Lionel Messi, is expected to travel to London next week to undergo a short trial at Arsenal and Wenger could try and set up a deal to sign the teenager if he impresses.
