Arsenal are preparing a move for Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin.

The Mirror says Arsenal will target England striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin as a replacement for Alexander Lacazette next summer.

And that is further bad news for Everton boss Rafa Benitez, who has admitted his Goodison plans have been wrecked by the injury absence of the centre forward for the past three months.

Calvert-Lewin is under contract until 2025, and Benitez has already suggested he will fight tooth and nail to keep his important players at the club.

But he also admitted in recent days that rival clubs - including Liverpool - have achieved success by selling to raise funds at the right time and Everton must follow suit.

That suggests even important players like 24-year-old England star Calvert-Lewin would have a price, and Arsenal are ready to test that prospect.
