Arsenal are keen on improving their attacking options with the signing of Joshua Zirkzee.
The 22-year-old Bologna striker has been linked with a move away from Italy and Arsenal are keen on securing his services.
A report from Calciomercato claims that Arsenal are willing to offer him a contract worth around €6 million (roughly €115k-a-week) in order to convince him to move to North London.
Other Italian clubs are keen on the striker as well but they are unlikely to be able to match up with Arsenal financially. Moving to England could be an attractive option for the Dutch attacker and it will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
The 22-year-old striker has 11 goals and 6 assists in all competitions this season and he will certainly help Arsenal improve in the final third. He might need some time to adapt to English football, but he has the physical and tactical attributes to thrive in the Premier League.
