Wright is also being considered by Liverpool, but Arsenal have made a stronger offer to secure his signature. The Gunners have offered £250,000 plus bonuses for the young player.
This offer is significantly higher than the £100,000 plus add-ons that Liverpool had initially made. Wright has already made four senior appearances for Salford City, known as the Ammies.
The player was signed by Salford City two years ago after showing his skills in local teams Euxton Villa and Fylde, where he stood out due to his height of 6ft 3in.
