Torino winger Alessio Cerci is keen on a move to Arsenal. The London Evening Standard says agents acting for Cerci arrived in London last night, with the Torino striker's representatives thought to be hopeful of generating interest from the Gunners.
Torino want a straight cash deal of about £16million for the 27-year-old, a price his main suitors, AC Milan, are unwilling to match. Cerci is also keen to play Champions League football.
Cerci was one of the best players in Serie A last season and was included in Italy's World Cup squad, although he did not start any of their games.
