Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger wants young Japanese talent Ryo Miyaichi to remain at the Emirates this season and is keen to secure a work permit for the winger.
Miyaichi signed for the Gunners in January after impressing Wenger during a trial period, at which point the 18-year-old was loaned out to Dutch club Feyenoord in order to help him adjust to European football.
The young winger was part of the Frenchman’s squad during the summer's pre-season action although was unable to play in the Emirates Cup due to FIFA ruling.
Wenger is seemingly keen for Miyaichi to push for a first-team spot and challenge the likes of Theo Walcott and new signing Gervinho for a starting place this season and admits he is attempting to secure the work permit needed for the winger to play in England.
He told the club's official website: "My plan is to get a work permit for him and to put him on the pitch for Arsenal Football Club."
