The 21 year old Argentine has been in fine form this term, netting a dozen goals and providing seven assists in Serie A action, and has been the subject of multiple Arsenal scouting trips.

Though Juventus are also keen it appears that Arsene Wenger’s side are in the driving seat with the Metro claiming Arsenal are ready to meet the player’s £28.9m valuation.

It’s not instantly obvious as to why Arsenal would be looking to bring in another big money striker given the successful season a number of Wenger’s attackers are having.

Arsenal have scored 58 goals in 30 Premier League fixtures, with Olivier Giroud and Alexis Sanchez being especially impressive, and as such the outlay of a big sum on another goal-scorer seems a little hard to fathom.
