Arsenal step up the chase for striker Alvaro Morata, 25, after confirming reports that current forward Danny Welbeck will be out for 9 months.
The Gunners will turn to Morata in an attempt to fill the depleted attacking options at the club, following Welbeck’s injury and Alexis Sanchez impending departure.
Morata has been in good form for Juventus since joining the club in 2014, scoring 15 goals in 62 games.
After winning the Serie A tittle Juventus are expecting many of European footballs top clubs to mount transfer bids on their star players.
Arsenal have been lightweight in attack all season and manager Arsene Wenger has vowed to improve their forward line this summer.
