Merson urges Arsenal to go for Man City striker Aguero

Arsenal hero Paul Merson thinks Sergio Aguero would be a 'perfect fit' for Mikel Arteta's side.

Barcelona and PSG are frontrunners to sign the Argentine, who can leave Manchester City on a free transfer this summer.

A number of English clubs are also interested, and Merson thinks his former side should throw their hat in the ring.

Merson told Sky Sports: "Will he stay in England or will his next move be abroad? If he stays in England, I think Arsenal would suit the style he would be looking for. They'd be a good choice.

"Mikel Arteta was at Manchester City and the way Arsenal play - they get around the box and they do create a lot of opportunities. Arsenal do tick that box for Aguero."
