Arsenal linked with shock move for Diego Costa

Arsenal have been linked with a shock move for former Chelsea striker Diego Costa.

The Gunners are interested in pursuing a new striker this month. Fiorentina's Dusan Vlahovic is their number one transfer target.

The club are weighing up a bid for his services, but it is reported that they are also keen on luring Costa back to London.

The 33-year-old has his sights on a potential return to European football after terminating his deal at Atletico Mineiro.

The north London giants have held informal talks with the player's entourage over a potential free transfer in the coming weeks.

The Gunners have a big decision to make in the striking department this year with Eddie Nketiah and Alexandre Lacazette possibly leaving.

They have entered the final six months of their deals, and have no plans of renewing. Nketiah could be sold before the end of January.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's future also remains uncertain. His contract expires in June 2023, but could be offloaded this summer.
