Porto striker Jackson Martinez has revealed that he grew up supporting Arsenal and would love to join the club one day.

Martinez has been increasingly linked with a move to the Gunners after admitting that he would like to play in the Premier League.

"I cheered for Arsenal when I was a kid – I love their style of play," Martinez told Metro.

"It's flowing and open with a lot of first touch passes, it would be suitable for a player like me.

"If I get a chance to play for a high level club like Arsenal I wouldn't hesitate to accept it."

Arsenal are rumoured to be looking for a striker during the January transfer window and have been linked with Fulham's Dimitar Berbatov.
