Arsenal have reportedly identified Amiens striker Serhou Guirassy as a possible summer target for when the transfer window reopens.
The 24-year-old only joined Amiens from Koln last summer and impressed during the 2019-20 campaign, scoring nine goals and creating one more in 23 Ligue 1 outings.
However, his form was not enough to save Amiens from suffering relegation to Ligue 2, with the decision to end the season early condemning them to the drop as they sat 19th in the table, four points adrift of possible safety.
The Daily Mail reports that Guirassy could now be available for a cut-price fee, making him an even more attractive proposition for an Arsenal side whose transfer plans have been adversely affected by the coronavirus pandemic.
However, the Gunners are expected to face competition from Premier League rivals West Ham United and Bournemouth, both of whom have also been keeping tabs on the France Under-20 international.
Arsenal are in the market for a new striker due to uncertainty over the futures of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette, the latter of whom is likely to be disciplined by the club for off-field actions this week.
