Arsenal are reportedly lining up a surprise move for Inter Milan striker Pio Esposito during the summer transfer window.

The Gunners bolstered their strikeforce with the signing of Viktor Gyokeres last summer and he has been a decent fit with 13 goals thus far.

The Swede has started to pick up form, but the north London giants could still invest in a young striker, who can develop into an elite player in future.

Esposito has now emerged as a strong target for the Premier League leaders and sporting director Andrea Berta is working behind the scenes over a move.

The 20-year-old has played just over 1200 minutes for Inter in the current campaign, but has made a big impression with 11 goal contributions.

He has scored and provided key assists during the season for the Nerazzurri, who are currently cruising at the top of Serie A with 58 points.

Inter have not placed a price tag on the youngster’s head, but they are bound to demand at least €50 million to contemplate his departure.
