Arsenal reportedly move Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez to the top of their shortlist for potential summer signings.

Arsenal are reportedly ready to up their efforts to sign Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez during the summer transfer window.

With Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah potentially departing the Emirates Stadium as free agents, it has been well-documented that the Gunners are likely to be in the market for at least one new frontman.

Martinez, as well as the likes of Gabriel Jesus and Dominic Calvert-Lewin, have been strongly linked with a move to North London ahead of 2022-23.

However, according to The Times, Martinez is now above those other two players in the pecking order when it comes to potential arrivals at Arsenal.

Given their ongoing financial struggles, Inter are allegedly prepared to part ways with one of their key men for a fee in the region of £60m.

As well as any approach being dependent on Champions League qualification, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has also cast doubt over whether the club can afford to make a big-money signing.

Twenty-four-year-old Martinez has contributed 17 goals from 32 appearances in Serie A this campaign.
