Deportivo La Coruna make bid for Arsenal striker Lucas Perez

Deportivo La Coruna have made an offer to Arsenal for Lucas Perez, the player's agent has confirmed.

Perez, 28, moved to the Emirates last August and in a £17million deal but only started two Premier League games.

The former Dynamo Kiev frontman suffered a thigh injury in March, but even when he returned to full fitness he failed to make a single match-day squad, before being named as an unused substitute for the FA Cup final win over Chelsea.

That means his last appearance came off the bench in the sixth-round FA Cup win over non-league Lincoln on March 11.
