Arsenal manager Arséne Wenger has a lack of players at his disposal in the midfield area with Gilberto, Lassana Diarra and Mathieu Flamini all having departed in the past few months.
While the Frenchman has been linked with moves for high-profile free agents like Stephen Appiah and Mineiro, a one-time summer target has been once again mentioned by the British press.
The Daily Mail reports that Wenger is eager to reunite the Touré brothers at the Emirates, with Kolo's brother Yaya allegedly in Arsenal's sights.
The north London side could be ready to make a move for the 25-year-old Barcelona midfielder during the January transfer window.
The Ivorian has been under utilised by Barça coach Pep Guardiola this season, and has made only 25 league appearance for the club since joining for £6.5million in July 2007.
However, Arsenal may be the club to offer consistent first team football for the ex-Olympiakos star.
