Arsenal are considering a move for AS Roma striker Patrik Schick as a replacement for crocked forward Danny Welbeck.

Corriere dello Sport says the Gunners are set to be in the market for a striker - probably a short-term option - following Danny Welbeck's injury.

Welbeck is unlikely to return this season amid fears he suffered a broken ankle in the midweek clash with Sporting Lisbon.

Unai Emery needs reinforcements for first-choice forwards Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

That is where Schick would come into it - and Roma could look to get Aaron Ramsey as part of a deal.

The Welshman has been told he will leave the Emirates this summer after the offer of a new contract was withdrawn.
