Arsenal plot swoop for Sevilla striker

Arsenal are mulling over a move for Sevilla striker Carlos Bacca, according to a report.

The Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has revealed that the club would be 'active' in the transfer market on deadline day, with the need for a striker being their main priority.

It is understood that the Frenchman could be tempted into signing a striker before the transfer deadline following a lackluster performance by Yaya Sanogo during the club's 1-1 draw at Leicester City on Sunday.

According to Goal.com, the North London club could make a bid in the region of £12.5m to seal a deal for the Colombian international.
