Arsenal keeping tabs on Porto's Brazilian striker
Arsenal are reportedly keeping tabs on the performances of Porto striker Evanilson ahead of a possible summer move.
The Gunners are expected to land a marquee centre-forward during the summer transfer window and they are looking at different options.
Sporting star Viktor Gyokeres is the top target for the club, but O Jogo claim that the club have been closely monitoring Evanilson recently.
The 24-year-old has been in superb form for Porto this campaign. He has registered 22 goals and provided another six assists for them.
He started the campaign with a couple of injury setbacks, but has recovered well to become one of the in-form strikers in European football.
Evanilson has already faced the Gunners this term. He started in both legs of the round of 16 stage of the Champions League last month.
The Brazilian almost scored a long-range goal, but he was denied at the Emirates Stadium after a splendid fingertip save by David Raya.
