Arsenal are reportedly linked with a  move for FC Porto striker Jackson Martinez, as per reports from Portuguese newspaper Abola. 

The Gunners have lacked depth in the striking department, and manager Arsene Wenger is well aware that an injury to in-form French international Olivier Giroud could have a negative effect on the club's pursuit for a trophy.


Arsene Wenger, who succeeded in luring Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid for a club record fee of £42m, is expected to splash the cash once again on the talented Colombian goal-machine.

Martinez currently has a transfer release clause of  £33m, having scored an impressive 31 goals in all competitions for the Primeira Liga outfit last season.
