The Frenchman has reportedly asked Barca's board to allow him to leave the Nou Camp in January.
The 21-year-old's attitude and diet have been criticised since joining the Catalan giants.
Furthermore, the Gunners lead the bookies market to sign Dembele at only 7/4 - after they were firmly connected with a move in the mid year.

Liverpool are barely second top choices at 9/4 after their interest has been reported in recent weeks.
Meanwhile the likes of Tottenham, Manchester United, Man City and Chelsea have also been priced up by the bookies.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes stated: "Dembele needs out and it would appear that the adolescent is Premier League bound with Arsenal driving the race for his mark."
Regardless of his misery, the previous Borussia Dortmund star has scored seven goals in 16 games for Barcelona in all competitions this term.
This was after his debut season with the La Liga champions was hindered with a serious hamstring injury.
