Arsenal will push on with a deal for Bolton Wanderers defender Gary Cahill.
The Sunday Mirror says the Gunners will go in with a fresh £12million bid which could rise to around£15m with any international and club honours won by Cahill over the course of a five-year contract.
And the indications are that Cahill will be an Arsenal player before the transfer window closes as Arsene Wenger is determined to bolster his defence with a player of proven Premier League experience.
Wenger will press on with a deal for Cahill, despite rowing with Bolton chairman Phil Gartside via Twitter last week.
