Argentine goalkeeper Willy
Caballero has expressed his delight after Arsenal dispatched a
scout to watch him at the weekend.
The Elche shot-stopper was in fine form as he helped his side
claim a goalless draw with Real Sociedad.
Wenger's Spanish network took the chance to watch the
highly-rated Caballero whilst also checking on the progress of
midfield starlet Fran Merida - who is on loan at Sociedad for the
rest of the season.
Caballero admits he was delighted to turn in such a good
performance knowing the English giants had people watching him.
"For me it was a big surprise but perhaps it was the best match
of my career," he told Radio Mitre.
"But I have not spoken with anyone, but my future remains with
Elche."
Elche's directors have confirmed that they have not received any
offers for Caballero - who is also being chased by Spanish sides
Real Zaragoza, Real Mallorca and Deportivo La Coruna.
26-year-old Caballero, who has Spanish nationality, has been
called into the full Argentina squad - but he is yet to earn his
first cap.
His current contract at Elche has 18 months left to run, whilst
his buy-out clause is set at £4.5million.
