Wenger is also said to be keen on strengthening his defensive options and has moved for Manchester United's Chris Smalling.

However, Smalling may look for pastures new given the rumours surrounding Louis van Gaal's big summer spending spree, including centre-back Mats Hummels.

But any hopes of signing Valencia striker Carlos Bacca have been thrown out the window.
Arsenal were said to be plotting a £22m bid to activate the 28-year-old's buy-out clause in January.
However, he's confirmed his future is with the La Liga outfit, saying:"I’m happy at Sevilla and so is my family. I have a contract for four years."
