Arsenal 'keeping tabs on Sassuolo striker Gianluca Scamacca'

Arsenal are reportedly monitoring developments surrounding Sassuolo striker Gianluca Scamacca.

The Gunners will be in the market for a new centre-forward ahead of the 2022-23 campaign, with Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah set to leave upon the expiration of their contracts.

The likes of Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Alexander Isak, Darwin Nunez and Marcus Rashford all continue to be linked with moves to the Emirates, but one up-and-coming Serie A striker has supposedly caught the capital side's eye.

According to FC Inter News, Arsenal have already touched base with Sassuolo to register their interest in Scamacca, who has scored 13 goals in 28 Serie A matches this term.

The report adds that Newcastle United and Borussia Dortmund have been in contact with the Emilians as well, but Inter Milan are at the head of the queue for the £33m-rated 23-year-old.

Scamacca arrived at Sassuolo's youth academy from PSV in the winter of 2017, and his deal with Alessio Dionisi's side does not expire until 2025.
