Arsenal make formal David Villa approach?

Arsenal reportedly make a £13.8m offer to Barcelona for Spanish international striker David Villa.

Arsenal have reportedly made a formal offer to Barcelona for striker David Villa as they look to strengthen their attacking options.

The Gunners have been linked with Spain's record goalscorer since the transfer window opened last week but have now made an official approach to the Catalan giants, according to ESPN.

Villa has struggled to regain a starting spot in Tito Vilanova's side this season after recovering from a broken leg.

Arsene Wenger's side are thought to be willing to pay around £13.8m to secure the 31-year-old's services.

Barcelona are back in La Liga action tomorrow as they return from the winter break with a local derby against Espanyol.
