Highly-rated Spanish youngster
Koke has claimed Arsenal are monitoring his
progress.
The Gunners have been linked with a move for 17-year-old, who
currently plies his trade for Atletico Madrid B, although the North
London club have yet to comment on the speculation.
Defensive midfielder Koke is considered to be one of Spain's
brightest prospects and is the captain of the Under 17 side.
He said: "I am calm. My sole focus is to improve as a player
each day.
"Arsenal have watched some of my matches, but I have not spoken
with anybody."
Koke is tied to a youth contract at Atletico and will be able to
sign senior terms in the summer.
