Mauro Icardi linked with Arsenal

Inter Milan skipper Mauro Icardi has emerged as a fresh target for Arsenal this summer. The Gunners are in the market for a new centre-forward after England international Jamie Vardy committed his future to Leicester City.

Arsene Wenger's side were dealt a blow to their transfer ambitions earlier this week as Vardy agreed to pen a new long-term deal with the English champions.

TalkSPORT says the Gunners could shift their attention to Argentine marksman Icardi, who is desperate to ply his trade in the Champions League.

The Nerazzurri are also open to cashing in on their asset with Roma's Edin Dzeko being eyed as suitable replacement.

Icardi, 23, netted 16 league goals for the Serie A outfit last season as they earned a Europa League qualification spot.
