He may have only moved to West Ham from Leeds on a four-and-a-half year deal in January, but Byram is reportedly being lined up as a replacement for Hector Bellerin by Arsene Wenger. Bellerin has been linked with a move to Barcelona, which could pave the way for 22-year-old Byram to move to the Emirates.
The Spanish giants are said to want the right-back to return to the Nou Camp this summer. He left Barca in 2011, and has since become a first-team star for the Gunners.
However, the young defender made only four appearancs at Upton Park last season, and the Hammers will see him as one for their own future at the Olympic Stadium.
Reports from Italy claim the Arsenal boss likes the look of the defender. Byram only joined the Hammers in January from Championship side Leeds.
But he could now earn himself a move to a Champions League club - if Wenger decides to firm up his interest.
