Arsenal to seal stunning deal for PSG sensation?

Arsenal are reportedly readying a shock move for one of the best strikers from Ligue 1, according to The Metro.

Paris Saint-Germain forward Edinson Cavani has been long linked with a switch to the Premier League, with Manchester United understood to be keen on securing his services last summer.

The Uruguayan international has hinted of his desire to leave Les Parisiens this summer, having been forced to play second fiddle to Zlatan Ibrahimovic under manager Laurent Blanc last season.

A report from the Metro suggests that the Gunners boss Arsene Wenger will have talks with the French champions over the potential transfer of Cavani to the Emirates this summer.

It is also understood that the Gunners would require a club-record offer of at least £51 to seal a deal for the star striker.
