Report: Arsenal keen to sign £42m centre-forward powerhouse who scored 24 goals last season

The 26-year-old joined the La Liga outfit from Dnipro-1 in August last year in a move worth around £6 million. 

He hit the ground running at the Estadi Montilivi, scoring an incredible 24 goals in 36 league appearances. 

His excellent performances were instrumental in helping the White and Reds secure Champions League qualification. 

Atletico Madrid and Napoli have reportedly been impressed with his displays and want to sign him this summer. 

But Diari de Girona (June 16th, page 25) report that Arsenal have also set their sights on the hugely talented centre-forward. 

Dovbyk has a contract at Girona until 2028 but a fee in the region of £42 million could persuade the Spanish side to sell him. 

Mikel Arteta’s side missed out on the Premier League title once again, finishing just two points behind eventual winners Manchester City. 

They are looking to sign a new striker this summer, with Gabriel Jesus failing to make a huge impact at the Emirates Stadium. 

Dovbyk could be an excellent signing for the Gunners as the 26-year-old is a prolific goalscorer and has all the attributes to shine in the English top-flight.
