Roma striker Mattia Destro has revealed that he is happy to be linked with Arsenal, saying the rumours are 'proof that he is doing well'.
The Italian is reportedly the target of both Arsenal and Chelsea, as each London club attempts to sign the player.
The 23-year-old's form has been catching the attention of several clubs around Europe, with the forward scoring 22 goals in 49 appearances for the Giallorossi.
"Arsenal for me? The rumours are good, I'm happy for them. This is the proof that I'm doing my work well," Destro said, according to Goal.com.
"There are so many things that I can improve on. I must never stop and continue to learn new things.
"The coach encourages me a lot, he is teaching me some things, and I try to show my skills on the pitch, as well as the confidence he has in me."
The striker's character was allegedly criticised by manager Rudi Garcia, resulting in rumours that Destro wanted a move away from the club.
