Arsenal ponder surprise bid for Swansea striker Gomis

Swansea City striker Bafetimbi Gomis is a surprise target for Arsenal. The Daily Mail says Arsenal, Crystal Palace and Newcastle United are monitoring developments with Gomis.

The 29-year-old only joined Swansea in the summer but is growing frustrated with his lack of first-team starts as he alternates with Wilfried Bony.

Gomis joined on a free transfer after his contract ran out with Lyon and is understood to have a release clause of £7million.

Arsenal manager Wenger is still keen to add another goalscorer to his squad.

Gomis scored the winner against Arsenal, his first Premier League goal, barely a minute after coming on as a substitute against them earlier this month.
