Arsenal eye Jimenez as Aubameyang replacement?

Arsenal have reportedly identified Wolverhampton Wanderers forward Raul Jimenez as a potential replacement for Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

With their star man having less than 18 months left on his contract, the Gunners are likely to consider offers for the Gabon international in the summer.

Any fee generated from Aubameyang's sale would naturally be used to bring in an alternative to provide competition for Alexandre Lacazette.

According to The Sun, Jimenez is on Arsenal's radar after his impressive form for Wolves this campaign.

The 28-year-old has contributed 13 goals and eight assists in the Premier League and Europa League group stages.

However, Wolves are unlikely to consider any offers for the Mexico international at this stage of the club's development.
