Arsenal enter talks to sign Iranian starlet Sardar Azmoun

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is weighing up a surprise move for 19-year-old Iranian under-20 international forward Sardar Azmoun from Russian side Rubin Kazan.

The Gunners are hugely impressed with the 19 year old's development since his move to Russia and are being tipped with a GBP 6 million bid or the player. The 6 foot forward has previously attracted the interest of AC Milan and Chelsea but Arsene Wenger is confident he can secure a deal for the player who has grabbed over 19 goals in 17 games for the Iranian youth side.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is under huge pressure to bring in new faces during the summer and it appears that signing the Iranian youngster is one of his top priorities.
