Arsene Wenger has been forced into a decision over Gonzalo Higuain as Juventus battle to win the race for the Napoli striker.
Standard Sport understands the Gunners are yet to make a formal approach for the Argentina international, but he figures among Wenger's targets as the Frenchman seeks reinforcements in the final third.
The Gunners are not willing to meet Higuain's £79million release clause and reports suggesting Arsenal would part with Olivier Giroud to bring that fee down are understood to be wide of the mark.
Arsenal must now decide whether to enter negotiations with Napoli amid interest from Juve as Wenger bids to assemble his squad ahead of the new Premier League campaign, which kicks off on August 13.
So how well did Higuain perform last season at Napoli? Statistics from daily fantasy football game Oulala show an impressive shot accuracy of 58 per cent helped the striker to 36 Serie A goals last term.
And his average of more than five shots per game will make good reading for Arsenal fans, who watched Giroud take less than three shots per Premier League appearance last term.
