Arsenal Prepare Shock Move For Italian World Cup Winning Striker

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is set to step up his pursuit of a striker and is preparing to make a move for Juventus' Luca Toni, according to reports on tribalfootball.com.

Reports in Italy suggest Toni's contract with the Seire A club expires in June and it is believed the club aren't going to demand a fee for the World Cup winner and are just looking to get him off the wage bill.

During the course of the summer transfer window Arsenal lost two key players with Cesc Fabregas joining Barcelona and Samir Nasri moving to Premier League rivals Manchester City.

The speculation hasn't stopped and the latest player being linked with a move away from the Emirates is Robin van Persie who is yet to put pen to paper on a new deal with the Gunners.

That has left Arsenal boss Wenger looking for more options up front and he has targeted Toni for when the transfer window opens in January.
