Bazoer has been on the Gunners' radar since 2012, but the 19-year-old favoured a move to the Eredivisie giants instead.
But after missing out on a move for one of Holland's brightest prospects, Wenger is set to resurrect his interest in Bazoer again.
The Daily Mirror claim the Gunners have dispatched scouts to keep an eye on Bazoer, who has represented Holland at Under-21 level.
However, it is not clear how much Bazoer would fetch were he to leave in January or whether Ajax are willing to part company with him.
