He had loan spells with Blackpool and Doncaster last season, netting six times in 26 appearances.
QPR, and Ipswich have also been tracking the 20-year-old, who has so far made just one senior start for the Gunners, along with three substitute outings.
Blackburn have been linked with sensational moves for David Beckham and Ronaldinho during the January transfer window as new owners Venky's look to bring a high-profile name to Ewood Park.
