Arsenal have been priced as favourites to sign Brazil international Hulk this summer.

The Gunners are believed to be ahead of AS Monaco, Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea in the race for the 27-year-old. 

Manager Arsene Wenger would consider the possibility of using Hulk as a back-up striker for Olivier Giroud. It’s no secret that the Gunners’ boss is on the lookout for a new centre forward to ease the burden on the France international, but Hulk would be regarded as an expensive gamble by supporters.

The Zenit Saint.Petersburg player netted 21 goals and set up 13 more in 34 games last season.
