Arsenal fancied to make January move for Ligue 1 striker
Arsenal have been fancied to make a January swoop for Lille striker Jonathan David, according to TuttoMercatoWeb.
The London giants have started brightly this season and they have registered 11 points from five league games.
This has included tough away trips to Aston Villa , Tottenham Hotspur as well as Manchester City.
The Gunners almost picked up three points with 10 men at the Etihad Stadium at the weekend.
Despite this, the club are lagging behind their opponents in the striking department.
This could urge them to spend at the turn of the year and David is apparently a target.
The Canada international netted a stunning 26 goals for Lille during the 2023/24 campaign.
Despite this, he did not leave as clubs were reluctant to meet the reported £40m price tag.
However, they could be forced to sell him on the cheap in January.
His contract expires at the end of the season and Lille may not want to lose him on a free transfer.
