Report: Arsenal given Alexandre Pato go-ahead

Arsene Wenger will be given the go-ahead to launch a January bid for Corinthians striker Alexandre Pato as he again attempts to bolster his Arsenal strike force.

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has reportedly been given the thumbs up to launch a January bid for Corinthians' Brazilian international forward Alexandre Pato.

The Gunners boss is still looking to add to his strike force after failing to sign any notable competition for Olivier Giroud, who has scored eight goals in 18 appearances this season, in the summer.

He was unsuccessful in his pursuit of Liverpool's Luis Suarez and the Reds are almost certain to refuse to sell the Uruguayan to a Premier League rival if they do decide to cash in on their star asset.

Wenger, therefore, has to explore other options and the Daily Express reports that he will return for another former transfer target, Pato, whom he tried to sign from AC Milan last January.

The 24-year-old opted to move back to his native land with Corinthians, who have suggested that they will allow Pato, who has scored 10 times in 27 international games, to leave either on loan or for a £10m fee.
