Arsenal ponder Christian Benteke swoop
Arsenal are eyeing a surprise deal for Liverpool striker Christian Benteke. The Belgian is regarded as a potential replacement for Alexis Sanchez.
Benteke had a tough debut season for the Reds last term, and this has led to suggestions that he could pursue a fresh challenge over the summer.
Italian publication Tuttosport suggests that the Gunners could make their move for the 25-year-old with the future of Sanchez hanging in the balance.
Serie A holders Juventus are lining up a summer approach for the Chilean with coach Max Allegri in need of a new frontman following Alvaro Morata's exit.
Morata recently returned to former club Real Madrid after they activated the buy-back option placed during his sale to the Old Lady in 2014.
Sanchez has two years left on his existing deal at the Emirates.
