02 December 2011 - 05:18

Internacional striker Leandro Damiao is wanted by Arsenal. The Brazilian striker, valued at around 20m GBP, has already been linked with a mega money move to Tottenham. However, Arsenal scouts are now monitoring the talented striker.

  • Chelsea set to sign Crystal Palace star for £47m
  • Man Utd aiming to beat Liverpool to 25yo midfielder
  • The 22-year-old has made his first appearance for Brazil this year, and impressive form for Internacional has seen a whole host of European sides monitor the forward in action.


    In this season's Campeonato Gaucho, Damiao scored 17 goals in only 13 games, and finished the year with 40 goals from 51 matches.


    The Gunners are readying a bid next summer for the striker who could eventually be a long term replacement for Robin van Persie.
