Toulouse striker Andre-Pierre Gignac is being linked with Arsenal.

The Mirror says Arsene Wenger last night admitted he is definitely in the market for a top class striker in January.

Wenger has identified Toulouse striker Andre-Pierre Gignac as his top target as there are doubts over West Ham's Carlton Cole because of his poor injury record while Wolfsburg's £25million-rated Edin Dzeko is too expensive.

He would have to find at least £12million to buy Gignac while Cole would cost £9million and is currently out injured anyway.
