The reports have claimed that Gunners boss Arsene Wenger is keeping strong tabs on the defensive midfielder for the past few weeks.
The Dutchman joined the club in 2014 after his impressive performance in the World Cup.
Blind played as the central defender for the major part of last season but new boss Jose Mourinho is looking to bring a new center-half.
Blind is still in doubts about his United’s future as Mourinho has not discussed with him about the future.
Despite of playing a fine role at the center-back the Portuguese boss believes that he is too small for that role.
Blind told NOS: “I am looking forward to working with Mourinho. We will have to wait and see whether anything changes for me.”
The 26-year-old told that despite of not big as Pepe he showed enough last season in the Premier League.
While Arsenal are looking to bolster their defensive areas and with the addition of Blind they can have a good defensive line next season.
Blind has made 85 appearances for the Red Devils since his £16million move from Ajax two years ago.
Wenger has targeted several defenders for the summer move but is yet to seal any deal and now he has added Blind to that list.
