Udinese president reveals Arsenal offer for Duvan Zapata

Arsenal are eyeing Udinese striker Duvan Zapata.

The Colombian, who is halfway through a two-year loan from Napoli, scored eight goals in 25 Serie A appearances last season.

Udinese president Franco Soldati claims Arsene Wenger is interested in the 25-year-old striker.

"There is a clause that allows Napoli to recall him early from the two-year loan," Soldati told Radio Kiss Kiss.

"He is very happy in Udine, his agent said that too and I hope he can remain with our jersey.

"He also received many offers from abroad, including from Arsenal. However, first we want coach Beppe Iachini to get to know the team so they can make shared decisions."
