The 16-year-old is a highly regarded talent at the Bernabeu, but could become the latest teenager in La Liga to swap Spain for England and continue his development at Arsenal.
The Gunners pounced for Cesc Fabregas in similar fashion back in 2003, and Moreno looks like another exciting prospect for the future and one who could have a great future in the game.
