Arsenal plot Mandzukic swoop

Arsenal are mulling over a move for Atletico Madrid striker Mario Mandzukic having failed in their pursuit for Paris Saint-Germain's Edinson Cavani.

The Gunners have been speculated to have had a bid rejected from Les Parisiens for Cavani, and the club are likely to look at an alternate option.

According to The Express, Arsenal will make a move for former Bayern Munich star Mario Mandzukic, with manager Arsene Wenger keen on retaining the FA Cup at the end of the current campaign.

Arsenal host Stoke City in the Premier League on Sunday.
