Arsenal to rival Milan for Serie A forward

 

Arsenal have entered the race to sign Genoa forward Diego Perotti to ease their injury crisis, according to Metro.

 

The Gunners will look to fend off competition from AC Milan to sign the 27-year-old and are reportedly even looking to table a bid of £9.8m for his services.

 

Arsene Wenger currently has seven first-team players unavailable through injury and the Arsenal boss will reportedly look to bolster his squad in the new year in order to avoid slipping off the title pace.
