Arsenal are determined to sign Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic before the January transfer window closes.

That is despite the need to outlay a significant amount of money to land the Serbian striker.

The Daily Mail says Arsenal must cough up £300,000-a-week (£160,000-a-week after tax) in wages on top of a £58m transfer fee.

These financial costs have not deterred the Gunners, who are desperate to sign a star striker this month.

Vlahovic is one of the most sought after forwards in world football after a stunning stint with La Viola.

Tottenham are another club who have been strongly linked to the 21-year-old, who has scored has scored 23 goals in 28 appearances this season.

Everton forward Dominic Calvert-Lewin is another target for Arsenal.

However, Vlahovic remains their priority for the winter transfer window.
