Arsenal linked with January move for Hernanes

Arsenal have been linked with a move for Lazio midfielder Hernanes.

The 28-year-old is believed to be a long-term target of Gunners boss Arsene Wenger, who is looking to further add to his midfield ranks following the £42.5m capture of Mesut Ozil.

According to LazioNews24, the Frenchman will make an offer in January, although the Biancocelesti are unwilling to consider anything less than £25m.

The Brazilian international has been a sensation for Lazio since his 2010 move from Sao Paulo and helped them to Coppa Italia glory last season.
