The Gunners are thought to be in desperate need of attacking support.
It’s widely believed that Arsenal’s Premier League title credentials could well be undermined by their lack of strikers if the club don’t move for someone in the January transfer window.
Long-term injuries to Nicklas Bendtner, Yaya Sanogo and Theo Walcott has left the Gunners with only Olivier Giroud and Lukas Podolski as attacking options.
Here’s an analysis of the six strikers that the north London club have been linked with:
Diego Costa
Club: Atletico Madrid.
Likely cost: £32m.
2013/14 form: 23 games, 23 goals.
It’s been a great year for the 25-year-old since filling the void left by Radamel Falcao’s £50m departure to AS Monaco and with a release clause in the forward’s contract, could well be a viable option.
