Arsenal are reportedly considering whether to make an approach for Red Bull Salzburg forward Noah Okafor.

The Gunners have enjoyed a remarkable Premier League campaign thus far, leading the standings by eight points after collecting 69 points from 28 matches.

Furthermore, Mikel Arteta has witnessed his team score 66 goals, those efforts being shared around the team with Gabriel Martinelli the leading marksman with 13 strikes.

Nevertheless, there have been times where the North Londoners have been left short in the final third, a consequence of injuries to Gabriel Jesus and Eddie Nketiah from December onwards.

With regards to next season, Arteta has the option of keeping Folarin Balogun in his senior squad after his hugely impressive campaign on loan in France with Reims.

As it stands, though, there appears to be as much chance of Arsenal cashing in on the England Under-21 international as there is handing him another opportunity with the first team.

According to the Daily Mail, Arsenal are thinking about making an approach for Okafor ahead of 2023-24.

Although the 22-year-old has sometimes been overshadowed by other players at Red Bull Salzburg, the Switzerland international remains a highly-regarded player.

The versatile attacker has chipped in with 34 goals and 23 assists from his 108 appearances for the Austrian giants, six of his goals coming in the Champions League.

With less than 16 months remaining on his contract, a summer exit is expected with a wide array of clubs likely to make bids for the frontman.

The report adds that fellow London clubs Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United are also interested in Okafor as they bid to boost their own attacking ranks.

Furthermore, Italian giants Inter Milan and AC Milan are also admirers, particularly when the player stands to be available for a cut-price fee.

While a potential fee is not suggested, Transfermrket values Okafor at €22m (£19.3m), reflecting his contract situation.
