Liverpool has entered the race for Jorrel Hato as the defender continues his development at Ajax.
He has been tipped to become the next Ajax defender to move to Arsenal as the Gunners monitor his progress.
The teenager has already established himself as a key member of the Ajax team before turning 18 recently.
Arsenal has been tracking him since he was 17, looking to add him to their squad as soon as possible.
Hato is not in a hurry to leave his current club and wants to continue developing where he is at the moment.
According to Football Insider, Arsenal now faces more competition for his signature, with Liverpool also showing interest.
The Reds are already working on strengthening their squad in the summer, and Hato could be one of their additions following Jurgen Klopp’s departure.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Hato is a top talent in the making and defends like a veteran, which is why he still gets a lot of game time at his club.
This will help him develop, and he needs at least one more season of consistent action to get better and ready for the Premier League.

Said it before, saying it again. We don’t need this guy
I saw ,with some pleasure, the way Robinson of Fulham bombed down the left flank, crossed on the run for the CF to convert and thought to myself, we do not have a conventional left back who could do that.Contrary to some ,I feel we most certainly need a natural left back for next season and imo Hato fits the bill.
I was blown away by Robinson grandad.
Thought he was the best player on the pitch. He has everything! He is calm quick and has a great engine.
He has come on leaps and bounds and while his decision making can be ropey I would not be averse to him joining Arsenal.
