Ballard would be new Burnley boss Vincent Kompany’s first signing if the move goes through.
He would go some way towards replacing departing centre-backs Ben Mee and James Tarkowski.
Ballard has never played competitively for Arsenal, but managed 33 appearances for Millwall in the Championship on loan last term.
